The former Prime Minister will appear before the cross-party Privileges Committee at 2pm on Wednesday for a session of questioning that is due to last four hours.
All seven committee members, led by Labour veteran Harriet Harman, will use Mr Johnson’s appearance to determine if he deliberately misled the Commons when he told MPs no COVID rules or guidance had been broken.
Sky News understands that Mr Johnson’s team feel the new documents are generally helpful to them, according to a source.
