The Prime Minister Has Asked for an Investigation, and the Terms of Reference for the Investigations Have Already Been Published.

i apologize again unreservedly, for the upset that these allegations have caused. Both the prime minister and i came before the house in december to set out the details of the investigation being led by the cabinet office. The investigations are now being led by sue grey who is a former director general of propriety and ethics. If evidence emerges of what was potentially a criminal offence, the matter would be referred to the metropolitan police. Matters relating to adherents of the law are as ever, matters for the metropolitan police to investigate.
