The Daniel Morgan Independent Panel said “there was not insignificant obstruction to the Panel’s work. At times the contact between the Panel and the Metropolitan Police resembled police contact with litigants rather than with a body established by the Home Secretary to enquire into the case.” Will you be ensuring that the Met cooperates fully and as openly as possible with the non-statutory inquiry into the issues raised by the conviction of Wayne Couzens, given the criticism directed at the Met by the Daniel Morgan Panel?
