Funding gap for UK troop inquests
Thursday, 12 July 2007,
Inquests are held in the UK for soldiers killed while serving abroad
The government has not provided further funds to the coroner investigating the deaths of British troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, the BBC has learned.
Jane Scott, leader of Wiltshire County Council, fears
there could be problems ahead for families of the bereaved.
She said: "I am surprised they haven't learned their lesson from Oxfordshire and they just haven't reflected it in funding in Wiltshire when we wrote to them saying that we would have the same pressures on our service as Oxfordshire did."
More than 220 UK service personnel have died in Iraq and Afghanistan since operations began in both countries.
