Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if the Government will publish all documents, including copies of emails, letters and minutes of meetings, in respect of its consideration of reform of bereavement damages.

Asked by:
Anna McMorrin (Labour)

Answer

The Government considered the case for reform of bereavement damages when responding, in February 2020, to a report by the Joint Committee on Human Rights.

That response document set out the Government’s position, and we have no plans to publish any additional material.
