Sir Julian Lewis

Conservative — New Forest East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 23 June 2026

Debate

Defence Spending and Readiness

Contribution

One of the strong arguments put forward for the legislation is that it will help families to find out the truth of what happened to their loved ones, yet by repealing the Conservative legislation, it makes that less likely rather than more likely—because who is going to come forward and incriminate themselves by saying what happened to people who were unlawfully killed if they know that they will not then have immunity from prosecution?
