This specific claim is being considered as part of a broader police inquiry into potential misconduct in public office by Andrew, which now includes allegations of sexual misconduct. Detectives are clarifying that their investigation's scope is wider than just accusations of Andrew sharing information as a trade envoy, encompassing broader legal terms for the offence. Andrew served as the UK’s special representative for international trade and investment from 2001 to 2011, stepping down amidst controversy over his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, though he denies any wrongdoing. The ongoing major investigation is anticipated to be lengthy, facing obstacles such as legally defining 'public office', and Andrew was arrested and interviewed under caution on 19 February, with searches conducted at his former residences.
