UK
[edit]According to the Guardian, a group of bereaved families called for a "judge-led" public inquiry into the British government response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Guardian reported that other forms of public inquiry, such as a royal commission, are available should the government "defy rising pressure for a statutory public inquiry".[2]
In May 2021, the UK government announced a public inquiry will begin in Spring of 2022 called the UK Covid-19 Inquiry,[3][4] and the Scottish Government established the Scottish Covid-19 Inquiry. The Independent reported that the date of the inquiry may be pushed beyond the promised date.[5]
Sweden
