Ian Duncan ‘facilitated an introduction’ for Terrestrial Energy, which was seeking government funding
A Conservative peer helped to secure a meeting with a minister for a Canadian company he was advising while it was seeking government funding worth millions of pounds.
Ian Duncan was on an advisory board of Terrestrial Energy, a nuclear technology company, when he “facilitated an introduction” between its chief executive and a new energy minister while the company was applying for a government grant. The revelation raises questions for Duncan about whether his actions broke House of Lords rules.
