Tory peer Baroness Mone is dealing with investigation by the Lords requirements watchdog over the awarding of Authorities contracts value greater than £200 million to a PPE provider.
The Lords Requirements Commissioners mentioned they’re investigating potential breaches of the friends’ code of conduct in relation to her alleged involvement in procuring contracts for PPE Medpro (PPEM).
The transfer follows a grievance by Labour peer Lord Foulks after a report earlier this month by the Guardian into the awarding of the contracts within the early days of the pandemic.
Girl Mone has constantly denied any “position or operate” within the firm, and her legal professionals have mentioned she is “not linked to PPE Medpro in any capability”.
In accordance with an announcement on the commissioners’ web site, the investigation covers potential breaches of provisions within the code of conduct banning friends from accepting monetary inducements for exercising parliamentary affect and requiring them publicly to declare all related pursuits.
Girl Mone was made a life peer by David Cameron in 2015 after promoting an 80% stake in her Ultimo lingerie firm.
