On tomorrow’s show @grantshapps will be responding to the Dominic Cummings story on behalf of the government.

He may understandably not know all of the details we ask for. So we’re taking the unusual step of flagging in advance some of the questions @SophyRidgeSky will ask (1/4)

All of the questions are legitimately in the public interest, but the nature of the questions mean @grantshapps may not know the answers without advance warning.

We would never normally do this but believe it serves viewers best to get informed answers to these questions (2/4)

So @SophyRidgeSky will ask @grantshapps:

When did Mr Cummings first display symptoms?
On what date did he travel to Durham?
Did he stop on the journey? If so, did he comply with the 2m rule at all times?
When was the Prime Minister made aware that he had made this journey? (3/4)

Did Mr Cummings remain in self-isolation for the duration of his time in Durham?
Did he only make one trip, or multiple?

We hope that this will give Mr Shapps time to find out the answers if he does not know them. (4/4)

📺 #Ridge starts at 8.30 on @SkyNews tomorrow morning.
