"The publication of Service Inquiry reports is considered on a case by case basis."



Philip Dunne - 17th March 2014

"It has for several years been Departmental policy to publish Service Inquiry reports into fatal accidents at the conclusion of the Coroner's Inquest."



Not entirely contradictory, but disingenious. The determining factor would seem to be whether or not a death has occurred. If it has, the report is not allowed to be scrutinised by independent parties. That is, MoD determines what evidence is heard by the Coroner. The clear aim is to prevent the truth being told in court, because the Coroner isn't involved in other non-fatal cases.

This is exactly what happened with the Red Arrows inquest and, in a particularly obvious case, the ASaC collision inquest of January 2007 when MoD refused to answer questions relating to inconsistencies and outright lies in witness evidence.

The stated aim is to prevent recurrence. The actual aim is to conceal the truth.
