Layla Moran has warned there is "no time to waste" after the prime minister committed to a future independent coronavirus inquiry.

Layla is the Chair of All-Party Parliamentary Group on Coronavirus which this week launched a rapid cross-party inquiry into the Government's handling of the pandemic.  

Layla Moran said:

"Boris Johnson must commit to a public inquiry now, not kick this into long grass. There is no time to waste, we must learn the lessons from this crisis ahead of a potential second wave this winter.

“The APPG on Coronavirus is already taking evidence, with a focus on rapidly producing practical recommendations. If the Prime Minister is serious about an independent inquiry that goes beyond our own, he must launch it without delay.”
