The government is preparing to publish more documents about the appointment of Lord Mandelson as US ambassador.

Batches of papers were published in March and June - but others were withheld because they were part of a Metropolitan Police investigation.

The Cabinet Office has now said a number of extra documents will be published, likely before Christmas. Some will still be withheld at the request of the Met.
