As has been the case under successive Administrations, civil servants, including special advisers, may routinely accompany their Ministers on official visits.

Information relating to Ministers’ overseas visits are published on www.gov.uk, as part of the Government’s wider transparency agenda.

All ministerial travel is undertaken in accordance with the Ministerial Code.
