Partygate: Met Police to issue first fines, sources say
BBC News says the first fines for breaches of Covid-19 lockdown rules as part of a police inquiry into government parties will be issued soon, the BBC has been told.
The Metropolitan Police will issue at least 15 fixed-penalty fines initially and could start on Tuesday, Westminster sources suggest.
The investigation of 12 events held across government began in January.
It came after an internal inquiry passed information to the force. The Guardian said fines were “imminent”.
Downing Street and the Met have not commented, but government sources told the BBC officers could be about to begin issuing the fines.
