Downing Street has yet to receive a report into lockdown parties in Downing Street and across Whitehall, the foreign secretary has confirmed to Sky News.

PM welcomes police inquiry

There have been calls for Number 10 to release the document in full.

However, the foreign secretary said there could be "security issues" which mean parts of it are "problematic to publish".

"But we will absolutely publish the findings of the report," she pledged.

Ms Truss also said Boris Johnson has her "100% support" as the prime minister faces calls, including from some of his Conservative MPs, to resign over the partygate revelations.

The crisis engulfing the PM deepened on Tuesday when the Metropolitan Police announced it is investigating a "number of events" in Downing Street and across Whitehall for potential breaches of COVID-19 regulations.

Expectations had been raised that Mr Johnson would address the Gray report's findings in the Commons this lunchtime.

On Tuesday afternoon, it was understood that Number 10 would publish the report compiled around midday today and then the PM would make a statement in the Commons after PMQs.
