Summary of business appointments applications - Sir Paul Jenkins

Published 1 September 2014

Sir Paul Jenkins left his role as Treasury Solicitor in February 2014.

Sir Paul sought the Committee바카라 사이트™s advice about three appointments to: provide a review of the governance arrangements for security in the Palace of Westminster; become a member of an International Expert Governance Advisory Panel for Ernst & Young, advising the Federal 바카라 사이트 of Canada; and undertake a joint consultancy project for the New Zealand 바카라 사이트 Legal Service/Crown Law and 바카라 사이트 Communications Security Bureau (GCSB).

When considering these applications, the Committee noted that none of the appointments were likely to include contact/dealings with Sir Paul바카라 사이트™s former Department/바카라 사이트.

The Prime Minister accepted the Committee바카라 사이트™s recommendation that, the three month waiting period for Permanent Secretaries having already expired, these applications be approved subject to the conditions that:

  • Sir Paul should not draw on privileged information available to him whilst in Crown service; and

  • for two years from his last day of service, he should not become personally involved in lobbying the UK 바카라 사이트 on behalf of his new employers or their clients.

The letter containing the final advice was sent in July 2014 and the first of the appointments was taken up later that month.
