As always at this level, there may be no right and wrong and it's fine to say that he may be a RP. First scenario - Mr P is RP of A and of B, AND A may be RP of B Second scenario - Mr P is RP of A and of B. I am not convinced that A is a RP of B Fortunately exam questions focus on the ethics of non-disclosure rather than the minutiae of disclosure!
