the Flawed Hamilton Report
This incident involving Mark Macdonald was offered to Hamilton as the driving factor forcing the decision to compile new procedures in regard to harassment of staff by government minsters. He accepted the concoction without comment or investigation. If he had established the truth the allegations of breaching the code conduct for minsters of the government would have been been confirmed
Extract from Hamilton’s report.
“On 4 November 2017, during the review process, a Scottish Government Minister resigned his Ministerial post, following allegations made from outside the Scottish Government about his personal conduct. This example reinforced for the Scottish Government the importance of making sure that it had policies and procedures in place which were capable of responding appropriately to such allegations should they arise within the Scottish Government.”
