Admiral Sir Mark Stanhope left his role as First Sea Lord in September 2013.

1. Royal Naval Trustee, Royal Museums Greenwich

Sir Mark sought advice on accepting a position as a Royal Naval Trustee for the Royal Museums Greenwich.

The Prime Minister accepted the Committee’s advice that this application be approved, subject to the condition that:

  • for two years from his last day of service Sir Mark should not become personally involved in lobbying the UK Government on behalf of his new employer, its parent company or its clients.

The letter containing the final decision was sent in November 2014 and he took up the role in February 2015.
