Text
The Member's original question sought the up-to-date position on the data breach. However, as the Minister referenced, there is also the McCloud judgement and the holiday pay situation. Could the Minister perhaps give us the most up-to-date position on each of those elements and any information that there may be on timelines for progressing those?
