Commons privileges committee suggests it won't publish Johnson's Partygate dossier until at least tomorrow

The Commons privileges committee has implied that it will not publish the ‘case for the defence’ dossier it has received from Boris Johnson about its Partygate inquiry today. In a statement a spokesperson for the committee said:

 

The committee of privileges can confirm it received written evidence from Boris Johnson MP at 2.32pm on Monday.

 

The committee will need to review what has been submitted in the interests of making appropriate redactions to protect the identity of some witnesses.

 

The committee intends to publish this as soon as is practicably possible. The material will be published on the committee website.
