A campaign group set up to seek justice for Welsh families who lost loved ones to Covid-19 has been given a key role in the UK-wide public inquiry into government handling of the pandemic.
On Tuesday, October 4 it was confirmed that the Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice Cymru (CBFJC) group was granted 'core participant status' in the first module of the inquiry which will examine the UK's resilience and preparedness for such a health emergency.
However, the CBFJC still firmly believes that a Wales-specific inquiry should be held as it would achieve the "proper scrutiny that Wales deserves". However, the Welsh Government said a UK-wide inquiry was the best way to understand the experiences of people in Wales.
