John Barrett, Sir Alan Beith, Sir Menzies Campbell, Sandra Gidley, Paul Holmes and Richard Younger-Ross
This report, from the House of Commons Committee on Standards and Privileges (HCP 491, session 2009-10, ISBN 9780215545008) examines the claim that 6 Liberal-Democratic MPs (John Barrett, Sir Alan Beith, Sir Menzies Campbell, Sandra Gidley, Paul Holmes and Richard Younger-Ross), who, following the sale of the Dolphin Square estate in Westminster in 2005, tenants had received offers from the estate's new owners of a lump sum in exchange for moving out or paying a higher rent. The 6 members wrote to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards to rule on whether their decisions in respect of the offers from the new owners had been appropriate. The report sets out the Commissioners' decision in respect of the MPs concerned.
