Metropolitan Police Report by Sir Richard Henriques

Lord Kennedy of Southwark Excerpts

Monday 30th September 2019 Lords Chamber

[Lord Kennedy of Southwark (Lab Co-op)]

I welcome the noble Baroness’s comments but, in the light of them and the fact that it is a personal mission of the Home Secretary, why is neither the Government nor the police and crime commissioner for Wiltshire, Mr Angus Macpherson, prepared to look at the issues around Operation Conifer and the allegations surrounding Sir Edward Heath?

[Baroness Bloomfield of Hinton Waldrist]

Again, I do not believe that I can go much further, except to say that the reports of the IOPC and the Metropolitan Police Service will be published, and that further questions will be answered at that stage.
