Covid-19 Inquiry

Asked by Mark GarnierConservativeCabinet OfficeTabled Answered 9 September 2024UIN 2069

The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of establishing an oversight mechanism to monitor the implementation of recommendations from module one of the covid-19 inquiry.

Answered by Nick Thomas-Symonds

Public inquiries are an important mechanism to learn lessons for the future. The Government will carefully consider all of the findings and recommendations of the UK Covid-19 Inquiry Module 1 report.

Parliament, and in particular its Select Committees, has an important role in scrutinising government policy, including the implementation of inquiries' recommendations.
