Each evidence record above shows how it was checked.
Relation. An institutional role with explicitly scoped time: snapshot, sourced interval, or unknown dates. No continuing appointment is implied.
Date. Date of the report. The article dates Fergus's LinkedIn announcement to 'yesterday (8 April)', which conflicts with its own 9 May publication date; the announcement date is left unresolved.
