Home Affairs Committee Inquiry on parliament.uk ↗
Inquiry scope (the committee's words)
The Home Affairs Committee is seeking evidence on the policing of vigils held over the weekend of 13 and 14 March 2021 which followed the tragic death of Sarah Everard. The Committee wishes to hear from those who participated in, organised, policed, or were otherwise affected by the vigils about their experiences of these events. The Committee will seek to take evidence about the vigils very soon so that it can understand what happened, why vigils were policed differently in different places, and what lessons can be learned.
