Boris Johnson will give public evidence about whether he misled MPs over Partygate on 22 March, the Privileges Committee has confirmed.
On several occasions, Mr Johnson, who was then prime minister, told the Commons the rules had been followed. An investigation by senior civil servant Sue Gray found widespread rule-breaking had taken place and a police inquiry led to 83 people, including Mr Johnson himself, being fined for attending events.
It has already received written submissions from witnesses, as well as being provided with WhatsApp messages, documents and photos of gatherings.Boris Johnson celebrates his birthday - for which he received a fine - in a photo released by the committee
