answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/10/2019 answer text <p>The prosecution of veterans is something that we take very seriously. Our Service personnel are of course subject to the law, but veterans should not have to face repeated investigations many years after the events in question. This is why we have just completed a public consultation on proposed legal protections measures for serving personnel and veterans. Once we have analysed the responses, we will bring forward legislation.</p> answering member constituency Plymouth, Moor View answering member printed Johnny Mercer question first answered 21/10/2019 16:42:04 answering member 4485 label Biography information for Johnny Mercer

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/10/2019 answer text <p>I understand and sympathise with the veterans affected. However, the issue of pre-1975 pensions is common to all contemporary public service schemes. Given the likely number of former employees, the financial impact of resolving legacy pension issues is expected to be very significant. There would also be potentially overwhelming practical and administrative difficulties in recreating precise service and pay records and calculating pension awards for people who served about half a century ago, or for their surviving dependants.</p> answering member constituency Plymouth, Moor View answering member printed Johnny Mercer question first answered 21/10/2019 16:41:21 answering member 4485 label Biography information for Johnny Mercer

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/10/2019 answer text <p>Legal aid is available for advice and assistance for all inquests, subject to a means and merits test. Inquests follow an inquisitorial process and legal aid support for representation is not typically applicable. Exceptional Case Funding may be available where certain inquests require legal representation. The Government wants to ensure that the bereaved are placed at the heart of the inquisitorial process and is taking forward a number of measures announced in the recent Review of Legal Aid for Inquests to make the inquest process more sympathetic to the needs of bereaved families; the Government also has work underway looking at the prevention of deaths of people who are in the care of the state.</p> answering member constituency Aldridge-Brownhills answering member printed Wendy Morton question first answered 24/10/2019 15:22:26 answering member 4358 label Biography information for Wendy Morton
