PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Charter for Families Bereaved through Public Tragedy (5 February 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what public bodies have signed the Hillsborough Charter.

Asked by:
Gareth Thomas (Labour)

Answer

As set out on 6 December 2023, in the Government's response to Bishop James Jones' independent report, many organisations have already signed the Hillsborough Charter, including the National Police Chiefs’ Council, College of Policing, Crown Prosecution Service, Fire Service, and Kensington and Chelsea Council.

This Government will encourage and work with other public bodies to adopt the Charter and commit to learn the lessons of the Hillsborough disaster, to ensure that the failings we saw in its aftermath are never repeated.
