A Yorkshire MP's been told to apologise to the House of Commons for failing to declare his interest in a telecommunications company, while taking part in parliamentary inquiries relating to the industry. 

The Commons Committee on Standards ruled Selby and Ainsty MP, Nigel Adams, committed several "minor" breaches at "the less serious end of the spectrum" of the MPs' code of conduct.

It concerns Mr Adams' removal of his directorship of NGC Networks Limited and NGC Network Services from the register of MPs' interests and failures to declare his and his wife's interest in the companies. 

Mr Adams told the Standards Committee he disagreed with the commissioner's findings, as he'd followed advice on removing his name from the register and made clear his interest during the inquiry into connectivity.

Keith Boots, along with two other men, is expected to learn his fate at Leeds Crown Court after a sequence of events which began with detectives finding £700,000 worth of narcotics in his home.

Cocaine, crack, heroin, ecstasy and cannabis were all found at Boot's home on Norman Lane,Eccleshill, which prosecutors described as resembling "a warehouse of controlled drugs".

Boots has already been sacked by the West Yorkshire force, where he was a police officer for more than 20 years.
