London, May 7 (IANS) UK Prime Minister Theresa May will meet Graham Brady, the chairman of an influential committee of backbench Tory MPs, amid calls for her to set a resignation date, the media reported on Tuesday.
It follows a request from the 1922 committee -- an elected body of MPs which represents backbenchers and also oversees leadership contests -- for "clarity" on the issue, according to the BBC.
No 10 insists the meeting is routine but reports say that Brady is likely to press May for a timetable for her departure. On Monday, Treasurer of the 1922 committee Geoffrey Clifton-Brown told the BBC that the Prime Minister should announce a "road map" for her resignation after the European elections set for May 23.
