The foreign secretary has been issued a formal warning by the Environment Agency after reporting himself for fishing with the US vice-president without a licence.
David Lammy reported himself to the agency after an “administrative oversight” meant he failed to get a rod licence while hosting JD Vance at his grace-and-favour retreat in Chevening, Kent, on 8 August.
Mr Lammy failed to catch any fish, although Mr Vance and his children were more successful, and returned their catches to the lake.
At the time, a Foreign Office spokesperson said that, after recognising his mistake, Mr Lammy had subsequently purchased a licence.
