Business and Trade Secretary Kemi Badenoch has postponed a meeting with the UK's five leading business groups amid the unfolding crisis over sexual misconduct allegations at the CBI.
Insiders said the meeting had been due to take place shortly after parliament returns from Easter recess. One insider sought to allay such fears on Wednesday, saying the other members of the B5 were able to liaise with the Department for Business and Trade in the usual way, despite the decision not to go ahead with their next scheduled meeting.
