An MP breached Parliamentary rules by failing to publish information about a committee backed by the British Educational Suppliers Association (BESA), the standards watchdog has ruled.
The Parliamentary commissioner for standards opened an inquiry after a complaint that the all-party parliamentary group (APPG) for education failed to include mandatory information on its website and publish income and expenditure statements for 2019 and 2020.
Conservative MP Marcus Fysh has chaired the APPG since February 2020.
In a decision published this week, commissioner Daniel Greenberg said he considered there had been a breach of APPG rules but that it was “at the less serious end of the spectrum”.
