Written question asked by Lord Spellar (Labour) on Tuesday, 14 June 2011, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Thursday, 16 June 2011. It was answered by Jonathan Djanogly (Conservative) on Tuesday, 21 June 2011 on behalf of the Ministry of Justice.
Legal Aid: Iraq
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Justice what legal aid funding has been provided to Iraqi citizens for cases relating to alleged abuse by the UK armed forces in each of the last three years.
- Answer
-
The information requested is not readily available and could be provided only at disproportionate cost. The Legal Services Commission (LSC) do not record the nationality of claimants, and so cannot provide comprehensive costs incurred on these cases. Nor are cases specifically recorded or traceable as 'abuse by the UK armed forces'.
