§ Sir John Wheeler
The terms of Mr. Justice Girvan's recent judgment require the cases to be looked at afresh and for new information to be obtained and taken into account. I cannot say at this stage precisely when the process will be completed. However, I can assure the hon. Member that the cases of the two guardsmen will be considered as expeditiously as possible consistent with the terms of the judgment.
