About Hillsborough Law Now

The basis of a proposed Hillsborough Law would: · Give bereaved families better access to legal representation at inquests - creating a level playing field · Put in place a duty of candour on all police officers and public servants · Place a requirement that evidence and findings of major Inquests must be taken fully into account at any subsequent criminal trials · Clarify in law that major Inquiries commissioned by the Government or other official bodies constitute “courses of public justice” · Make it a requirement that any criminal trials following a major inquest take place in a court with relevant expertise and status, rather than a crown court
