SNIP:
Both Republican and Democrat members of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations announced they had referred the report to the British authorities that had requested access to its evidence.
These included the Parliamentary Standards Commissioner and the Charity Commission.

The committee said it had referred the report to, among others, the US Justice Department, the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, the US Attorney for the District of Columbia and the District Attorney for New York County.
In the UK, it said it also requested that the US Embassy forward it to "other entities of competent jurisdiction that may be interested in the evidence", such as the Home Office, HM Revenue & Customs, and the Royal Courts of Justice.
