I call Clive Lewis on a point of order in connection with the code of conduct, to rectify a failure to declare.

On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. I would like to apologise to the House for failing to declare an interest when making spoken contributions on 8 March 2023, 14 November 2023 and 16 June 2025. When I made these contributions, I inadvertently failed to declare an interest: I am the chair of the British Caribbean Association. This was a breach of the rules, and I apologise to the House for this error. I would also like to apologise to the House for failing to declare an interest when tabling written parliamentary questions to the Home Office on 1 February 2024 and 5 March 2025, and when tabling a written question to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office on 17 July 2024. When I tabled these questions, I inadvertently failed to declare an interest: I am the chair of the British Caribbean Association. This was in breach of the rules, and I apologise to the House for this error.

I thank the hon. Member for his point of order. There will be no further points of order on this issue.
