    MPs demand inquiry into revelations that Prince Charles sent staff to work in Whitehall

    Ministers urged to explain why Clarence House employees were given government posts

    The Prince of Wales was accused tonight of an "astonishing" breach of his constitutional role

    by dispatching employees to work in two Government departments.

    The disclosure that three members of his staff had been seconded to Whitehall followed last week's

    revelation that the heir to throne has had 36 private meetings with Cabinet members since the 2010

    general election.

    Demands for 27 letters written by the Prince to ministers in the previous government to be released

    have also been blocked by the Attorney General.

    MPs are preparing to challenge ministers over the secondments when Parliament returns next month

    and will attempt to trigger a Commons inquiry into the Prince's influence over the Government machine.
