Proceeding contribution from Lord Ramsbotham (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 6 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Armed Forces Bill.
Armed Forces Bill
My Lords, I will add one thing to what the noble Baroness has said. One of the bodies taking most action against the Government as regards the Chief Coroner is the Royal British Legion. It has worked with the charity Inquest, which looks after bereaved families, and has presented a powerful case. That case would be a great deal more powerful if the Ministry of Defence took as strong a line on behalf of serving people affected by this matter as the Royal British Legion is taking on behalf of veterans.
