Lord Lester of Herne Hill – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Cabinet Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Lester of Herne Hill on 2014-06-27.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether the report of the Chilcot inquiry is likely to be published before the next General Election.

Lord Wallace of Saltaire

The Inquiry is independent of Government, and the timing of the delivery of its report to the Prime Minister is a matter for the Inquiry. Sir John Chilcot said in May that it was the Inquiry’s intention to do so as soon as possible. Government is doing everything it can to ensure this is possible.
