That this House welcomes the report by the Chief Executive and Clerk of the Metropolitan Police Authority (MPA) for the MPA's Full Authority meeting on Thursday 27th October, recommending an independent review into the murder of Daniel Morgan in South East London in 1987; notes that after 18 years and four separate police investigations, no individual has been tried or convicted of the crime; regrets that the police investigations have failed to make up for the serious failings of the initial investigations in 1987-88 and 1988-89; expresses deep concern that the central allegations have not been addressed or resolved by any of the four investigations, namely that police officers were involved in the crime and conspired to frustrate the initial investigation; believes that the resolution of these questions are matters of concern not only to the family but to the Police Service and the wider public; and therefore calls upon the MPA and the Government to support an independent review into the circumstances of Daniel Morgan's murder and the allegations of police involvement that have arisen from it.
