The Parliamentary watchdog is investigating an MP over possible transparency breaches by a committee backed by the British Educational Suppliers Association (BESA).
The standards commissioner is probing allegations that Conservative Marcus Fysh broke all-party parliamentary group (APPG) rules concerning “income and expenditure statements” and the publication of “mandatory information”.
Fysh said the inquiry relates to reported breaches by the BESA-supported APPG for education, which he chairs.
After the investigation was revealed this week, Fysh stressed he was looking into the matter himself.
