Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, I don't think you'll be shocked by what I'm about to say. I may not share the same sentiments as Hefin David in relation to this. This co-operation agreement, which, quite frankly, my colleagues on these benches and those outside of this…

Different types of registration.

Inquiry into Lobbying: Evidence Session 3
Thank you, Harry. My final question is: how well understood are the requirements of the different registers amongst different organisations and individuals that you come across, covered by different pieces of legislation?
, Standards of Conduct Committee
Inquiry into Lobbying: Evidence Session 3
Okay. Yourself personally, or there'll be a specific department that you may usher it to? How does it work in your area?

And what if we don't know if they were paid or not?

Inquiry into Lobbying: Evidence Session 3

Is there any particular country—I know that you mentioned Ireland—that you particularly find inspiring, yourselves, that you can say you're almost trying to mirror what they've got? Is there anyone who has got it down to a T in your opinion?
, Standards of Conduct Committee
Inquiry into Lobbying: Evidence Session 1
Okay. And how well understood are the requirements of the different registers amongst different organisations covered by different forms of legislation that take place?
, Standards of Conduct Committee
Inquiry into Lobbying: Evidence Session 1
