Sue Gray Report

Dear readers, here we are providing Sue Gray Report PDF to all of you. The update confirms the dates of the events under the scope of the Gray investigation. There are 16 in total, with the first taking place on 15 May 2020 and the most recent on 16 April 2021.

Gray states that only four of these 16 gatherings “are not considered to have reached the threshold for criminal investigation” as a result of the information she provided. Twelve were investigated by the Metropolitan Police, which issued fines for eight of them.

According to the terms of reference, the report will set out ‘a general understanding of the nature of the gatherings, including attendance, the setting, and the purpose’. This will give an idea of the size of these gatherings and how many people attended (and perhaps what parts of No.10 they worked in), but also a sense of the nature of these gatherings, perhaps including how late they went on and how much alcohol was consumed.

Sue Gray Report PDF – What is the Gray report?

The internal investigation was launched following media reports of multiple gatherings in or near Downing Street – where the prime minister lives and works – since early in the pandemic.

It was originally led by the UK’s top civil servant Simon Case, but he stepped aside following reports that one of the events was held in his office.

Instead, Sue Gray was asked to look at the nature and purpose of the gatherings, including who went to them, and whether they broke Covid rules.

Downing Street parties: What Covid rules were broken?
Which Downing Street parties have resulted in fines?

What is expected in the full report?

Ms Gray is expected to give further details of the gatherings and could name some of the people who broke Covid rules.
None were named by the Met, including 28 recipients of multiple fines, at least one of whom received five fines.
The report may answer some of the questions raised after the Met announced the end of its investigation, for example how it happened that:

Photos have been published of the prime minister attending the leaving event for Lee Cain on 13 November 2020. Fines were issued to some people for being at an indoor gathering of two or more people, but the prime minister was not fined.
There were three gatherings on 17 December 2020, some of which the prime minister and the UK’s top civil servant Simon Case are reported to have attended. Again, fines have been issued but not to them.
On 14 January 2021, there was a gathering attended by the prime minister for which fines have been issued, but not to him.

Mr Johnson said to Parliament about the Christmas gathering on 18 December 2020: “I have been repeatedly assured since these allegations emerged that there was no party and that no Covid rules were broken.” The Met has fined some people who attended that event, so we know that Covid rules were broken.

The full report may give some insight into who was advising Mr. Johnson.

That may also help the forthcoming investigation by a committee of MPs into whether he misled Parliament.

What did Boris Johnson tell Parliament about parties?

On 20 May 2020, there was a gathering in the Downing Street garden to which staff were invited by the prime minister’s principal private secretary, Martin Reynolds, to “bring your own booze”.

Mr Johnson’s former top aide, Dominic Cummings, claimed a senior official replied to Mr Reynolds’ email, saying the party would break Covid rules.

If there is evidence of this warning in the report, it could raise questions for the prime minister who said he had not been notified in advance and believed the gathering was a work event.

There may also be something about the role of the police at Downing Street while the gatherings were taking place.

What was in the initial report?

Ms Gray delivered an initial report at the end of January, but delayed publication of the full report until the police had finished their work.

She named 16 events between May 2020 and April 2021 that fell within her remit. Twelve were investigated by police.

She said:

There were “failures of leadership and judgment by different parts of No 10 and the Cabinet Office” and “some of the events should not have been allowed to take place”
“Some of the behaviour surrounding these gatherings is difficult to justify”
There was an excessive consumption of alcohol that “is not appropriate in a professional workplace at any time”
Some of the gatherings “represent a serious failure to observe not just the high standards expected of those working at the heart of government but also of the standards expected of the entire British population at the time”
The Downing Street garden was used for gatherings “without clear authorisation or oversight” which “was not appropriate”

Is this an independent investigation?

This is an internal investigation rather than an independent inquiry. It was ordered by the prime minister, who set the terms of reference.

Ms Gray – who is required to be impartial – is reporting back to him.

The investigation team has been able to speak to current and former members of staff. Interviews with more than 70 individuals were carried out and digital information – such as emails, Whatsapp messages and photos – were examined.

Will Sue Gray be able to take disciplinary action?

According to the inquiry’s terms of reference: “If required, the investigations will establish whether individual disciplinary action is warranted”.
Any action taken would be confidential.
If there is evidence a minister has breached the Ministerial Code – such as potentially misleading parliament – it could be investigated by the prime minister’s standards adviser, Lord Geidt.
Mr Johnson would need to give permission before any new inquiry was launched and he ultimately decides if any minister – including himself – has broken the code.
The Privileges Committee’s investigation into whether the prime minister misled Parliament will begin after the publication of Sue Gray’s report.
