David Evans, Labour's general secretary, has just told the NEC that the Forde Inquiry into the 'Labour leaks' report says its findings could have the potential to prejudice the ICO’s work – so the report will only be delivered once the ICO inquiries are completed and resolved.
Evans was reading out a letter from the inquiry chair, Martin Forde QC, to the NEC.
The ICO is involved because an internal party investigation was set up to look into potential security breaches with report leak, and it made a disclosure to the ICO.
