Former military top brass could be banned from contacting ministers and civil servants after retired officers were accused of lobbying Whitehall on behalf of defence firms.
The Royal British Legion began an investigation after Lieutenant-General Sir John Kiszely, its president, was named as one of six former commanders recorded by undercover reporters, who claimed they represented a South Korean arms firm looking for business.
Sir John was quoted by The Sunday Times as saying that he could use his role at the charity to promote the company?s agenda with the Prime Minister and other figures at Remembrance Day events.
