Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:52 pm on 16 July 2019.
The second report, if it can be called that, into kukd.com is, shockingly, longer than the leak inquiry, reaching just over 500 words, but is more of a timeline of what action the Government has taken. It has no detail, no specifics on the allegations that have been received and no information on the various investigations that have been undertaken internally. First Minister, I am concerned that it took nearly 18 months for the police to confirm that they did not intend to pursue the case. What information did the internal audit team discover that warranted the file being referred to the police? And finally, First Minister, on 14 May, when I first raised this with you, you said that
'of course—we are committed to learning the lessons from those experiences'.
From this report, First Minister, what lessons can you learn, and do you believe this report represents the right level of scrutiny, and how much money has now been repaid by kukd.com?
