UUP Launches Independent Review of Donaldson | Belfast News

The Ulster Unionist Party has launched an independent review into former DUP leader Jeffrey Donaldson’s time with the party, following his conviction for 18 sex offenses—including rape—against two girls between 1985 and 2008. Appointing trauma-informed consultant Anne Marks to lead the probe, the UUP is creating a confidential, victim-centered process to examine allegations of misconduct, harassment, and abuse of power over Donaldson’s 21-year tenure. Backed by victim advocates and committed to legal transparency, the review aims to uncover what the party may have known—or failed to act on—and will publish findings where legally possible. Party leader Jon Burrows vowed accountability, assuring victims and the public that anyone coming forward will be heard and supported.
