Robert Halfon: wrong ministerial position #1202

Closed MyfanwyNixon closed 7 years ago

MyfanwyNixon commented 7 years ago

Office of Mr Halfon writes:

I've noticed on your website that Robert is listed as Minister for Schools when he is Minister for Apprenticeships and Skills. Is it possible for you to correct this?

dracos commented 7 years ago

We get this data from Parliament. Parliament lists him as minister for schools: http://data.parliament.uk/membersdataplatform/services/mnis/members/query/Id=3985/FullBiog/ If Parliament fixes this, we will pick it up.

And now he is not minister for schools on the Parliament site but we've not removed the data because I assume it disappeared from the Parliament site.

I've updated the database to remove the minister for schools entry.
