Thames Valley Police are currently investigating a dossier from the Mail on Sunday that details allegations against Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former trade envoy. The 147-page document includes claims that he shared sensitive government information with wealthy business associates, particularly property tycoon David Rowland, while on taxpayer-funded trade missions. The Mail on Sunday first alerted Buckingham Palace to these allegations in 2019, but the concerns were brushed aside with assurances that Andrew was promoting British interests. Following the emergence of whistleblower reports, police have formally requested the dossier for their investigation. The dossier reportedly contains emails suggesting Andrew sought confidential briefings from Treasury officials and used official missions to benefit his associates financially. Politicians, including Labour MP Rachael Maskell, have called for a public inquiry into Andrew's actions, arguing for accountability in the Royal Household. Despite the ongoing investigation, Buckingham Palace has refrained from commenting on the matter, citing the police inquiry as the reason for their silence. Andrew has denied any misconduct related to his role.
