It is not yet clear how many individuals will be named in Sue Gray's long-awaited report, but all will have been notified by the senior civil servant's team by 5pm on Sunday and given the opportunity to raise objections.
Ms Gray did not mention names in her interim report in January, but blasted "failures of leadership and judgement by different parts of No 10 and the Cabinet Office at different times".
The expected publication of the report comes after the Metropolitan Police officially closed its own inquiry into the Partygate scandal last week, with 126 fixed penalty notices issued to 83 individuals, including Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak. Given Mr Johnson has now received a fixed penalty notice, it is almost certain he will be named in the report.
