Written Question
Coronavirus: Monuments
Wednesday 28th April 2021

Asked by: Lord Selkirk of Douglas (Conservative - Life peer)

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to create a national monument to commemorate those who have lost their lives due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Answered by Lord True - Leader of the House of Lords and Lord Privy Seal

Whilst the Government's immediate focus is on protecting the lives and livelihoods of the nation, building a fitting and a permanent memorial to the loved ones we have lost is something the Government is considering very carefully.

We will set out the Government’s proposed approach to this important matter in due course.
