Ben Elliot cleared of wrongdoing but told to ensure distinction between concierge firm and Conservative party positions
The Conservative party co-chair, Ben Elliot, has been warned by an official watchdog that he should separate his public and business roles more clearly, following complaints that the high-end concierge company he runs engages in lobbying.
In a written summary of investigation, the Office of the Registrar of Consultant Lobbyists said that while Elliot had been cleared of any wrongdoing, he should nonetheless take action in the future.
