Govt: Hillsborough families have created ‘lasting legacy’

The Government has stopped short of introducing a Hillsborough Law called for by campaigners in its response to a report into the experiences of the bereaved families.

Former bishop of Liverpool the Right Rev James Jones set out 25 learning points in his report The Patronising Disposition of Unaccountable Power, published in November 2017.

Justice Secretary Alex Chalk told MPs the Hillsborough families have “created a lasting legacy” that is “a tribute to their loved ones.” He also apologised for the delay in the government’s response to Mr Jones’ report.
