Proceeding contribution from James Gray (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on Defence in the UK.
Defence in the UK
On the question of compensation, especially for those who have been killed, will the Minister consider the anomaly that those who have been bereaved are not paid that compensation until after the inquest has been concluded, which may be a significant length of time after the death? Is not there an argument for paying compensation to the families immediately after the death, with the higher amount being paid after the inquest is completed?
