Straw in 'clear breach' of rules
Jack Straw: Committee "surprised" that he "of all people" had broken the rules |
Jack Straw was guilty of a "clear, albeit inadvertent, breach" of the rules in not registering a donation for a dinner to mark 25 years as an MP.
But the Committee on Standards and Privileges said that because Mr Straw had apologised and registered the money no further action was recommended.
They decided on a public rebuke because Mr Straw did not register the donation until 2008 despite reminders.
