Covid-19 Public Inquiry — Immediate Commencement — 7 Jul 2021 at 16:08

The majority of MPs voted not to immediately commence the Covid-19 public inquiry.

The motion rejected by the majority of MPs in this vote was:

  • That this House
  • believes the Government has failed to give full details of the process behind the issuing of emergency covid-19 contracts; and
  • therefore calls on the Government immediately to commence the covid-19 public inquiry, announced by the Prime Minister on 12 May 2021.
