There are concerns over delays to an independent inquiry into the sacking of the late Carl Sargeant, according to a letter published by a solicitor representing his family.
The letter describes “very real concerns” about delays to the inquiry – HERE.
Responding, Leader of the Welsh Conservatives, Andrew RT Davies, said:
“The First Minister’s judgement has come under considerable scrutiny in recent days, and this letter will only add to the growing pressure his leadership is under.
“The Sargeant family’s frustration and distress is understandable, and it very much feels as though this process is being kicked as deep into the long grass as it possibly can.
“We’ve seen the very worst of Carwyn Jones this week, and we cannot allow his bully-boy tactics to prevent the truth from coming out.
“This letter reveals the tactics being deployed to influence and control the upcoming inquiry, and that is simply unacceptable.
“A man has lost his life in tragic circumstances, and there is a responsibility on everyone involved in this process to get things moving so that the family can find the answers they need to find peace with what has happened.”
