To ask the Secretary of State for Defence
(1) what his policy is on allowing bereaved families to visit Camp Bastion;
(2) what requests his Department has received from bereaved family members to visit Camp Bastion.
holding answer
The Department has received some requests from bereaved families. Like the previous Government, the Government's existing policy is not to organise or host visits for bereaved families to Afghanistan. However, we understand that this is a highly sensitive issue and, as a consequence, the feasibility of organised visits is kept under review.
