Government response
●UK Government · Accepted · 14 May 2025
The Government understands that the delay on the part of successive governments to take heed of the need for a public inquiry to be held into this matter has led to a fundamental loss of trust in authority for those who have been infected and affected. The recommendations made in the Inquiry’s May 2024 report are being taken very seriously, with work being taken forward across Whitehall, with devolved governments, and external bodies to scrutinise and address them all in full.
The Government Update in December 2024, fulfilled the obligations set out in recommendation 12b).
