UK lawmakers approve release of confidential documents related to former Prince Andrew
- On Tuesday, the House of Commons approved a motion to force the release of vetting documents on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's trade envoy role, with the government supporting it.
- After US releases of Epstein files last month, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested last week on suspicion of misconduct but released without charge as investigations continue.
- In the Commons, criticism coincided with the arrest of Peter Mandelson, who was questioned for over nine hours on suspicion of misconduct in public office linked to Epstein, and later released on bail.
- Bridget Phillipson said the government would "push ahead" with publication in early March, but officials warned police guidance will determine which files can be released.
- Tuesday's debate marks a rare Commons departure from deference to the monarchy, reflecting growing scrutiny of power by the Establishment and lasting implications for the House of Windsor.
