Lisa Nandy – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Education

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lisa Nandy on 2014-06-18.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether Dominic Cummings has contacted officials, Ministers and special advisers in his Department through their (a) official or (b) personal email accounts on official business since Mr Cummings left the Department.

Matthew Hancock

Mr Cummings is an ex-employee of the Department for Education. It is not uncommon for ex-employees to be in contact with Ministers and the Department. As the Secretary of State for Education explained to the House on Monday 16 June, many people seek to visit and contact the Department for Education to exchange ideas with old friends and colleagues.
