The Metropolitan Police have launched an investigation into parties held in No 10 during the coronavirus pandemic.
Commissioner Cressida Dick said they were looking into "potential breaches of Covid-19 regulations" in Downing Street and Whitehall since 2020.
The news comes after fresh allegations of a birthday party being held for the prime minister in June 2020.
The Cabinet Office said an internal inquiry led by the civil servant Sue Gray would continue.
But the BBC understands the report will not be published while the Met are investigating, and it is not clear how long the force will take.
