The Hillsborough Law will have far reaching effects on those in Political Life who wish to cover up or basically just not tell the truth about events that affect their constituents or the public in general.
The proposal would make the Law not Parliament responsible for these falsehoods. What a Politician says in Parliament if found to be false would result in a legal address not a slap on the hand in a Commons Committee with no other redress.
I think the extension to the Secret Services ie. MI5 and MI6 is important as well, fair enough respect State Security , but don’t use it as an excuse to cover up “lies” or ignore your duty of care to the people.
It sounded quite a naïve statement , but yes we don’t want to be lied to.
