Bereaved relatives say Scotland's Covid inquiry needs to deliver 'justice and accountability'.
Bereaved relative Alan Inglis spoke about the death of his son Calum to Covid in 2021 ahead of the first hearing of the Scottish Covid InquiryBereaved families have called for Scotland's Covid inquiry to deliver "justice and accountability" during the first day of evidence sessions.
The inquiry's approach is to look at the impact of the pandemic first, before turning to how decisions to respond to the crisis were taken, and then how Covid policies were implemented. "The Scottish Covid Inquiry must find out which protocols the prison were following at this time, protocols that would allow such barbaric behaviour to take place, and to examine the staff work culture within that prison where staff must have known how ill my son was, yet did nothing."
"The Scottish Prison Service is fully committed to working with the Scottish Covid Inquiry and supporting its important work."
