Proceeding contribution from Peter Kilfoyle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 October 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Christopher Traynor.
Christopher Traynor
The Minister is quite right to emphasise that he is not in a position to order the French to do anything, but there could surely be some kind of ministerial contact. We could use ministerial good offices on this side and on the French side and ask the French at the very least to consider reopening the case. That is quite different from trying to tell them what to do in such a case. A princess dies, and, quite understandably, we have investigation after investigation; a boy dies in a squat, and nobody seems to give a squat about what happened to him. It would be wholly remiss of Her Majesty's Government not to exercise some discretion on behalf of this young man.
