Sunak hints inquiry may be launched into budget leak

Rishi Sunak has said he deplores leaks but could not “recall” whether a leak inquiry was launched after the planned National Insurance cut was reported in the media before the Spring Budget.

Facing a grilling by the Commons Liaison Committee on Tuesday, the Prime Minister said: “I deplore these leaks, particularly around Budget measures.

I suffered from them as chancellor myself." Report by Covellm.
