• Comment: As a former government minister, he is presumed to be notable (see WP:NPOL), but the article still needs to cite reliable sources with significant coverage of him. Some of the current references lead to pages that do not even contain his name, and several others are simply lists of names. Mgp28 (talk) 12:29, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: See WP:BLP. Statements, starting with the date of birth, need to be sourced or removed. Greenman (talk) 11:01, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
