Rayner is being investigated by Greater Manchester police (GMP) over whether she gave false information about her main residence a decade ago. The shadow home secretary said Rayner was "very keen to be able to provide the facts to the relevant authorities".

Finnegan left Rayner's employment with a £20,000 payout and non-disclosure agreement after accusing her of disability discrimination and unfair dismissal.
