Although the cause of investigation has not been published, last week the Guardian reported Mr Gove did not register VIP hospitality he enjoyed at a football match with a Tory donor whose firm he had recommended for personal protective equipment (PPE) contracts worth millions of pounds during the COVID-19 pandemic.

He has written to the relevant parliamentary authorities to inform them of a potential omission from the register of members’ financial interests regarding two complimentary tickets he received from Queens Park Rangers Football Club to a match in August 2021.

"Mr Gove routinely declares his attendance at such events in his role as an MP and government minister, as evidenced by other entries in his register of interests and ministerial transparency returns.

Among those also subject of a probe by the commissioner are deputy speaker Dame Eleanor Laing, Sir Bernard Jenkin and Virginia Crosbie, who are alleged to have broken lockdown rules when they attended a birthday drinks during the pandemic.

Other Conservative MPs under investigation include Bob Stewart and Miriam Cates, who is facing claims she has caused “significant damage to the reputation of the House as a whole, or of its members generally”.

MPs approved the suspension of Mr Benton without the need for a vote - known as going through on the nod - meaning Prime Minister Rishi Sunak could face another by-election in Blackpool South.
