Motion detail
James Small-Edwards AM moved, and Anne Clarke AM seconded the following motion:
“The Assembly welcomes:
- The Metropolitan Police submitting all files on the Grenfell Tower fire to the Crown Prosecution Service to allow them to make charging decisions, ensuring that investigation remains on track and that those responsible are held to account through the criminal justice system.
- The Crown Prosecution Service’s commitment to making the charging decisions before the 10th anniversary of the devastating fire in June 2027.
Nearly 10 years ago, 72 innocent Londoners passed away in tragic and avoidable circumstances. The bereaved, families and survivors have waited far too long for the justice they deserve, and this must be delivered as swiftly possible and without any further delays. They have waited long enough, and the Assembly stands with them.
The Assembly remains dedicated to ensuring true justice and accountability is delivered for those who passed, the survivors, friends and family, the first responders and the wider community.
Each of them continues to live with the deep and lasting impacts of the disaster, which must never be repeated.”
Following debate and upon being put to a vote, the motion was agreed with 20 votes being cast in favour, and 1 votes cast against.
