The Cabinet Office faces criticism after reports say it kept no records related to claims involving former Prime Minister’s chief of staff Morgan McSweeney. According to the available accounts, McSweeney’s work phone was stolen last year following a mugging in Westminster. Separately, he has made bullying-related claims involving a senior figure in Whitehall, and the criticism centers on whether the Cabinet Office logged or maintained records of those allegations. The reporting highlights concerns about internal administrative processes and record-keeping, particularly for incidents involving staff safety and workplace complaints. The coverage points to a gap in documentation rather than disputes over the underlying events. The Cabinet Office has not been described in the provided text as accepting or rejecting the criticisms, and the information available here does not include details of any investigation outcomes. The case is presented as an example of alleged shortcomings in how claims and incidents are recorded within a government department.
