The second official report arising from the Manchester Arena public inquiry into the bombing atrocity will be published on November 3, it's been confirmed.
The delayed report will examine the response of the emergency services in the aftermath of the terrorist attack, which claimed the lives of 22 people - the youngest an eight-year-old girl, Saffie-Rose Roussos - in May 2017. Sixty-three people were seriously injured and 111 hospitalised.
Inquiry chairman Sir John Saunders' second dossier will also assess evidence heard detailing what happened to each victim. It was expected to be published in the summer, but the date was pushed backed due to the volume of correspondence and the scale of the report in total. Bereaved families and other interested parties have been informed of the November 3 date, the inquiry confirmed.
