To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps are being taken to investigate Lance Corporal Bernard Mongan’s death.
Johnny Mercer
Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (jointly with the Ministry of Defence)
Our thoughts remain with Lance Corporal (LCpl) Bernard Mongan's family following his tragic death. There is an on-going North Yorkshire Police investigation into his death and the Coroner will hold a Pre-Inquest Hearing before scheduling a full Inquest.
Within the Army, two Learning Accounts have been completed, which looked at immediate lessons to be learned, and a Service Inquiry has been convened, which will conduct a thorough internal investigation.
