Former Senedd member Neil McEvoy wrongly used taxpayers' resources worth thousands of pounds for political purposes, an inquiry has concluded.
An investigation by the Senedd's standards commissioner found that the former South Wales Central MS delegated political work to staff employed by the Senedd, used his publicly-funded office for campaign group meetings, used his Senedd office to interview people for a political role, and used electricity and equipment paid for from the public purse at his office to print and fold thousands of leaflets.
The probe also found that a member of the former MS's staff sent "two abusive messages" to someone who it was likely would be a witness in the investigation "in an attempt to persuade them not to give evidence" to an investigation into the former Plaid politician.
