Chinook Helicopters: Accidents

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether his Department (a) currently holds and (b) previously held any documentation relating to the Chinook ZD576 which crashed on 2 June 1994.

Answer

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office have conducted an extensive search of The National Archives' (TNA) search engine, Discovery, and their own records and have located records relating only to attendance at a funeral and a memorial service for those who died on the Chinook ZD576.

Our thoughts and sympathies remain with the families, friends, and colleagues of all those who died in the Mull of Kintyre crash.
