During her maternity leave she did not continue to hold the position of Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology as she was replaced by Chloe Smith in the interim. Therefore it is not correct to say she assumed the office on Feb 7. In actuality she is starting the second of 2 distinct stints as SoS for SIT. There is no such thing as an acting role in the UK so Smith's appointment was a full appointment and constitutes a break in Donelan's tenure. How should this be represented?

The retraction of accusations and that there has been a libel settlement and apology is reasonably well documented in the current edition; however, the context is missing. The events and actions leading to Prof Sang bringing a libel case against Donelan, including Sang's original Tweet and repost of a Guardian article, along with Donelan's and the UKRI's actions need to be given for this to be understood. I may try to assemble something myself, but if someone can give this context better than I can, please do. Montezuma69 (talk) 20:53, 6 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
It's quite difficult to provide relevant context without making it too long-winded. I'll also try to give the context in a detailed but concise way. Ellwat (talk) 20:59, 6 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
