<p>The circumstances surrounding the death of Dr David Kelly were considered extensively
by my predecessor in 2011. The investigation that he commissioned reviewed all of
the relevant documents and evidence. The then Attorney General’s conclusion at the
end of that process was that a fresh inquest or inquiry into the death was not warranted.
A written statement setting out the detailed reasons for the Attorney’s decision was
placed in the House of Commons library in June 2011. That statement was accompanied
by a good deal of additional material, including the independent reports that were
commissioned.</p><p> </p><p>I am not persuaded there is any reason to re-visit the
matter.</p>
