HC Deb 18 October 2001 vol 372 cc1308-9W
Mr. Keetch

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what progress has been made in granting Anna Homsi further payments relating to the death in active service of Brad Tinnion; when he expects to make further payments and at what amount; and if he will make a statement. [8205]

Mr. Ingram

We have completed our detailed work to consider the options for responding to Ms Homsi's request for further payments with respect to the death of her partner, Bombadier Tinnion, and her responsibility for their daughter. This has taken slightly longer than expected but we expect to be able to advise Ms Homsi of our decision by the end of this month.
