Conclusion
The MoD must, as a priority, establish an independent, skilled and properly funded service for investigations. Investigations must be robust, take place promptly and be sufficiently independent and of high quality so that there is no longer any need for repeated or protracted investigations. (Paragraph 36) Presumption against prosecution for offences after a 5-year period: Clauses 1–7
