This report arises out of a complaint, received on 13 September 2011, regarding Lord Avebury's entry in the Register of Lords' Interests. The Commissioner for Standards is satisfied that Lord Avebury has complied with the Code of Conduct in relation to registering relevant interests, and has dismissed the complaint. The Sub-Committee on Lords' Conduct, to which, in accordance with the Guide to the Code of Conduct, the Commissioner presents his reports, notes that Lord Avebury's entry in the Register did not disclose the fact that a partnership in which he had an indirect interest derived income from waste disposal into a landfill site. However, the Sub-Committee accepts the Commissioner's conclusion that this did not constitute a breach of the Code of Conduct. In light of the Commissioner's and the Sub-Committee's conclusions, which the Committee for Privileges and Conduct endorse, no further action is required.
