Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, when the judge-led review into how allegations of wrongdoing are raised and investigated, announced on 13 October 2020, is planned to be (a) concluded and (b) published.

The Judge-led Review was commissioned by the Government to ensure that we have the most up-to date and future-proof skills and processes in place to investigate and, where appropriate prosecute, cases where serious allegations of criminal wrong-doing are made against UK forces on operations overseas. Where necessary, improvements will be made. The Review is due to report by the summer and we aim to publish it once we have considered the recommendations.
