Question to the Leader of the House:

To ask the Leader of the House, whether he will consider honouring PC Keith Palmer with a shield in the Chamber like those which commemorate hon. Members killed in war or by terrorist acts.

The House authorities will consult PC Palmer's family and the Metropolitan Police about the most appropriate form of memorial.

The hon. Member may wish to know that PC Palmer’s name has already appeared on the website of the Police Roll of Honour Trust. He will also be remembered permanently at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire where UK Police Memorial provide a lasting tribute to the sacrifices that police officers make.
