Lobbying watchdog chair says ‘there seem to be no boundaries’ and system needs urgent reform Ashley Cowburn and Andrew Woodcock © Provided by The Independent MPs are set to launch at least three separate parliamentary inquiries into the Greensill lobbying scandal as Boris Johnson’s government faces mounting questions over a “revolving door” with business. Earlier, Lord Eric Pickles, the chairman of the body responsible for vetting private sector appointments of senior civil servants and former ministers, demanded urgent reform of “anomalies” in the system. In the past 24 hours, three parliamentary committees , including the Treasury, Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs, and the Public Accounts, have all revealed their decisions to hold inquires into lobbying, Greensill Capital and the ramifications for the civil service.

David Cameron prepared to give evidence to Greensill scandal probe

David Cameron has suggested he will give evidence to inquiries into Greensill as the government reels from another wave of lobbying revelations. A spokesman for the former PM said he will respond positively to any approaches from MPs or the official probe by lawyer Nigel Boardman. Mr Cameron has already denied breaching lobbying rules but acknowledged he should have communicated with ministers via formal channels, rather than texting senior figures like Rishi Sunak.

The spokesman said Mr Cameron will respond positively to all such requests when the terms of reference of each inquiry are made clear and any invitations to provide evidence are received .
