Here is Matt Hancock standing next to Frances Stanley ( https://www.suffolkconservatives.org.uk/news/newmarket-sets-out-rail-vision).
Frances Stanley is Director of Newmarket Racecourse and assists in the running of New England Stud near Newmarket ( https://www.cambridgeshirelieutenancy.org.uk/frances-stanley/).
Frances has four directorships. Two are connected with Heathfield School.
One is the National Horseracing Museum.
The fourth is CH&L Limited which was incorporated on January 2020, although Ms Stanley only became a director in June 2020.
Today, Govt published (unlawfully late) details of a £14.4m contract it entered into (without any tender process) for PPE back in April with CH&L. I'm sure this is all just fine but, just in case, we will write to ask whether this was a VIP lane contract. https://find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/002630-2021
Oh, and here is the Electoral Commission record showing a £5,000 donation made to Matt Hancock by a Mr Peter Stanley. Frances Stanley's husband is called Peter Stanley.
