Hillsborough Law aims to end 'culture of cover-ups
Yorkshire Evening Post
|September 17, 2025
The long-awaited introduction of a so-called Hillsborough Law has been hailed as a victory by campaigners who warned it must not be watered down.
-Â
The Public Office (Accountability) Bill was introduced to Parliament yesterday to begin the journey towards becoming law.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said the new legislation can change "the balance of power in Britain" to ensure the state "can never hide from the people it is supposed to serve".
He added: "Make no mistake, this a law for the 97, but it is also a law for the sub postmasters who suffered because of the Horizon scandal, the victims of infected blood, and those who died in the terrible Grenfell Tower fire. This is change only this Government can deliver."
