[On the Commons Privileges Committee investigation into Boris Johnson] This committee was established under the former Prime Minister. It commanded the confidence of the house [of Commons] at the time and I’m sure that they have done their work thoroughly and I respect them for that.
This is a matter for the house rather than the government, that's an important distinction and that is why I wouldn't want to influence anyone in advance of that vote.
It will be up to each and every individual MP to make a decision of what they want to do when the time comes, it's important the government doesn't get involved in that because it is a matter for parliament and members as individuals, not as members as government.

Additional quotes by Rishi Sunak

For too long, people have put up with the scourge of antisocial behaviour in their neighbourhoods. These are not minor crimes. They disrupt people's daily lives, hold businesses back and erode the sense of safety and community that brings people together. That's why I'm bringing forward a new plan to crack down on this behaviour once and for all – so that everyone can feel proud of where they live.
