Proceeding contribution from Lord Lipsey (Non-affiliated) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 17 July 2008. It occurred during Question for short debate on Armed Forces: Wounded Personnel.


Armed Forces: Wounded Personnel

We are now giving medals for people who have been killed in precisely the same circumstances that the noble Earl has described as requiring judgment. The Government have set up a group to look at those. Is he saying that we should not give medals to those killed in such actions in the same way that he believes we should not give them to the seriously wounded?
