A Downing Street source said the investigation relates to the shares his wife holds in a childcare agency

The overall aim was to boost the number of childminders able to take up work, which came as part of a broader package about expanding childcare for parents of younger children as well.

The standards adviser investigates and comes back with a decision on whether the code of conduct has been broken. If it has, that's where the focus shifts onto what type of punishment should be imposed.But critics, including the Labour chairman of the Standards Committee Chris Bryant, have called for the two registers to be combined because the ministerial register is published far less frequently and so is less visible to the public.

launched in January, the prime minister said there was a reason that"rules and regulations" are in place.Sunak: 'Transparency is important' Labour MP Catherine McKinnell pointed out that six private childcare agencies were set to benefit from, in which the chancellor announced a pilot of incentive payments of £600 for childminders joining the profession - a sum that doubles to £1,200 if they sign up through an agency.

The Liberal Democrats previously said that Ms Murty's shareholding raised"serious questions" for Mr Sunak and called on Sir Laurie to investigate.
