Downing Street has refused to guarantee that the public will be told if fines are issued over lockdown-busting parties.
Speaking to journalists at a regular Westminster briefing, the prime minister’s spokesman said it is for the Metropolitan Police to decide whether to make such information public.
“It will be the Met that sets out what they see fit at the conclusion of their work and I would not seek to set out what that may or may not be,” he said.
