New rules say ministers can apologise or temporarily lose pay for breaking code, which PM is accused of doing

 

Summary of changes:

 

  • References to "honesty," "integrity," "transparency," and "accountability" removed from foreword
  • Johnson himself now has to approve all investigations into himself and his ministers
  • Instead of resigning for breaching the code, ministers can now choose to temporarily have their pay reduced
