 A seating plan of the Conservative Party's Black and White Ball, in February 2014, was leaked to the ''Guardian'' in October 2014. The party, which guests pay between £450 and £1000 for a ticket, seats diners with the minister most relevant to them. The report revealed that Temerko was sat on a table with the then energy minister, [[Michael Fallon]] and [[James Wharton]] and [[Alun Cairns]], who are MPs of constituencies where OGN offshore wind farms have been proposed and have both benefited from donations directly from Temerko. <ref name="MP"/>
