Letter: No conflict

Sir: I am glad to see that in your report of 24 June you do not deny my statement that there is no conflict of interest between the statements I make as shadow President of the Board of Trade and the non-executive directorship I hold of Murray Financial plc. You are doubtless aware that I did register this interest, which is unconnected with my parliamentary duties. I therefore found your decision to place an article on the front page rather surprising.
