Editing Cash-for-questions affair (section)

====Sir [[Peter Hordern (politician)|Peter Hordern]]====
{{quote|He had no obligation to disclose to Ministers the interests of his colleagues.

Although the extent to which he declared his own interests on [[House of Fraser]] matters fell well short of the terms of the 1974 Resolution, there is no evidence that Ministers and officials were misled by this.

The spirit of the rules would have been better observed had Sir Peter made a separate Register entry in respect of Mr Al Fayed's hospitality, but this omission was not improper by the standards accepted at the time.

The allegation that Sir Peter tabled questions for cash is without substance and has been withdrawn.}}
