Details of the meeting emerged after Jonathan Reynolds, the business secretary, denied that concerns over free speech had featured in delicate tariff negotiations with the US.
There had been reports that a deal could be jeopardised over the case of anti-abortion campaigner Livia Tossici-Bolt, who was prosecuted for an alleged breach of a safe access zone outside a Bournemouth abortion clinic. The verdict is expected on Friday.
