Danny Kinahan – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Cabinet Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Danny Kinahan on 2015-11-17.

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, for what reason a representative of Northern Ireland was not present at the COBR meeting on 15 November 2015.

Mr Oliver Letwin

As is the case with information relating to the proceedings of Cabinet and Cabinet Committees, detailed information about attendance at COBR meetings is not disclosed. As a general principle, where an emergency directly affects areas of competence of a Devolved Administration, then they will either be invited to attend or advised on significant developments.
