HC Deb 05 June 2000 vol 351 c153W
Mr. Fallon

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department for what reason he has not replied to the letter of 30 April from the parents of the late Stephen Cameron about the award of legal aid to Kenneth Noye; and when he plans to do so. [124034]

Mr. Straw

The reason for not having replied to Mr. and Mrs. Cameron's letter of 30 April was because either the letter was not received in the Home Office or it was received and mislaid. I was grateful to the hon. Member for sending me a copy of Mr. and Mrs. Cameron's letter under cover of his own of 23 May.

My reply to Mr. and Mrs. Cameron will be despatched on 5 June, and will be copied to the hon. Member.
