The Cabinet Office has “serious questions” to answer as to why it passed on new details of Boris Johnson’s meetings at No. 10 and Chequers to the police, lawyers for bereaved families have told the Covid Inquiry janemerrick23 and eleanormia report

The KC said: “The families also question the purpose for which the redaction process is being used…

“The fact that the Cabinet Office have apparently referred some of the them [diary entries at Chequers] to the police indicates that the Cabinet Office itself considers that they may evidence criminal offences. The fact that the Cabinet Office did so only after the section 21 notice was issued also raises serious questions about the redaction process and for which it may have been used.”

She added that public bodies “are obliged in the discharge of their duties to act with candour, an undoubted pillar of good governance”.
