Vaughan Gething: Minister sacked without leak inquiry

Governments and other public bodies often hold leak inquiries to try to discover how confidential information has been released to the press.

Ms Blythyn had been social partnership minister.

In a letter to the Senedd’s public accounts and administration committee, ethics director David Richards confirmed that “no leak inquiry was commissioned or undertaken by the Welsh government”.

He said advice had been sought by Mr Gething “and provided in relation to process on handling a breach of the ministerial code”.

The code is the set of rules ministers are expected to adhere to.

Mr Gething said in May he had “acted in accordance with the ministerial code” and had sought advice from the permanent secretary, the most senior civil servant in the government.
