question text	Her Majesty's Government, in the light of (1) the clearing of Leigh Day and three of its solicitors of all allegations of professional misconduct, and (2) reports of further allegations by a whistle-blower against that firm, concerning claims by Iraqi civilians of abuse by British troops, whether they intend to refer that firm to the National Crime Agency for investigation of any possible criminal conduct.

uin	HL423
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/07/2017 answer text <p>The Government is aware of the recent media allegations of misconduct by an apparent whistle-blower, but consider it premature to refer the matter to the National Crime Agency. As the NCA would likely investigate only if these allegations have not been examined by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal, the Government will need to await publication of the Tribunal’s full, reasoned decision before deciding whether it is appropriate to refer the matter to the NCA.</p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 18/07/2017 16:24:39 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford
