## Evidence gaps

- Prior-employer role dates, personal contribution and independently verified qualifications are incomplete.

- Targeted web searches are screening-level; complete regulator, court, sanctions and criminal records were not independently obtained.

- Topic searches reused a broad person/employer query; dedicated independent searches across all topics and material employers were not completed. Search log records source-specific findings and unsearched topics as gaps.
