Proceeding contribution from Meg Hillier (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 June 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Deepcut Review.
Deepcut Review
I want to preface my remarks to the hon. Member for Woodspring (Dr. Fox)— Forgive me, Mr. Speaker. I will speak to the hon. Member for Woodspring later. I have three quick questions— I have one quick question. I am heartened that the Minister has written to Surrey police, but I want to place it on the record that I have not received a response to my letter to Surrey police in two and a half months and that none of the families—I represent the Gray family—has received anything. Can anything be done to pursue that matter? On recommendation 31, I fully endorse the comments by my right hon. Friend the Minister and wonder what conversations he has had with the Department for Constitutional Affairs. On recommendation 26, has he had any contact with the Canadian forces about their experiment with an ombudsman, which has been highly successful and did not involve anyone with a military background? I welcome the steps in response to recommendation 26, but I wonder what further progress will be made.
