Dominic Cummings broke government rules by failing to seek permission from the revolving door watchdog before setting up his Substack blog and offering consultancy services, a minister has said.
In one of his last acts as a Cabinet Office minister, Nicholas True said in a letter to Eric Pickles, the chair of the Advisory Committee on Business Appointments (Acoba), that “Mr Cummings, in this and other matters, did not follow the [business appointment rules] correctly”.
