'Potential whitewashing': COVID inquiry criticised after saying it won't hear from PPE suppliers
- The chair of the UK Covid-19 inquiry, Baroness Hallett, ruled that certain evidence about PPE Medpro will be heard in private due to potential risks in criminal proceedings.
- The National Crime Agency began investigating PPE Medpro in May 2021 for suspected criminal offenses related to its PPE contracts, which exceeded £200 million.
- Despite ongoing investigations, neither Baroness Mone nor Doug Barrowman has faced criminal charges to date.
- Baroness Hallett asserted that understanding the contracts with PPE Medpro is essential for the inquiry's recommendations about the pandemic.
