Labour — Warrington North

Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 September 2025

Debate

Duty of Candour for Public Authorities and Legal Representation for Bereaved Families

Contribution

Too often, bereaved families are left with no legal representation at the inquests of their loved ones. Does the Minister agree, as per our manifesto commitment, that the Government must provide state-funded legal aid to families at inquests and inquiries following state-related deaths and disasters to level the playing field between victims and the establishment?
