Visits by others

37.Members should register in this category any visit outside the UK which is undertaken by someone else, whether accompanying the Member or not. Registration is required if the Member is aware, or could reasonably be expected to be aware, that part or all of the visit was paid for by another person or organisation because of that Member’s membership of the House or parliamentary or political activities. (Subject to the relevant thresholds, Members’ staff who hold parliamentary passes as secretaries or research assistants should also register their visits in the Register of Interests of Members’ Secretaries and Research Assistants.)

##Visits undertaken through an All-Party Parliamentary Group

38.Groups themselves must register any visit which exceeds the relevant threshold set out in the Guide to the Rules for All-Party Parliamentary Groups. Each Member benefiting should also make a Register entry if the value of the benefit to them exceeds the threshold for visits in the Members’ Register. If the ultimate funder is identifiable, Members should give their details, as well as naming the Group.
