CORONER ACTS ON 20 YEAR COVER-UP Responding to news that the West Somerset Coroner has called for a police investigation into the almost 20-year long cover-up of vital evidence in the Lowermoor water poisoning incident, Lord Tyler, MP for North Cornwall between 1992 and 2005, said: "This seems to be a case of ‘better late than never’. "For nearly two decades Lowermoor water poisoning victims have demanded a real, open investigation into the cover-up which followed the incident. "After years of dissembling from Conservative and Labour Ministers, it has taken the initiative of a coroner to get answers. I anticipate that the police will want to interview all the politicians involved.”
Dan Rogerson, North Cornwall’s MP since 2005, added: "I’m delighted that the West Somerset coroner is helping Lowermoor victims take on the establishment. “The police investigation, for which Mr Rose has called, should be throughgoing and well-resourced. “I trust the Chief Constable will co-operate fully in disclosing any evidence that is available. “Anyone who feels they have anything to add to the investigation should write to my office, and I will act as a conduit to the Coroner." |

TOXIC AIR A MATTER OF PUBLIC SAFETY – TYLER
Commenting on the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee’s report on Air Travel and Health, Lord Tyler, who has long campaigned for action to protect passengers and crew from contaminated cabin air, said: “After years of trying to persuade Ministers to give appropriate priority to the problem of cabin air contamination, this committee has now underlined the need for urgent action. To give high priority to research is clearly long overdue, as the committee concludes. “The continual complacency of a succession of Ministers, faced even with evidence of a commercial cover-up over the last decade, has been breathtaking. “I hope and trust there will be no further procrastination, and no more pretence that this is this merely a commercial issue of private concern. It’s a very serious matter of public safety to both air crews and passengers.” |

LABOUR’S SCRAPHEAP OF ELECTORAL REFORM PROMISES
Responding to news that the Government has reneged on its commitment to publish a review of all the electoral systems introduced in Britain by the end of the year, Liberal Democrat Constitutional Affairs Spokesperson, Lord [Paul] Tyler said:
“This is yet another commitment on electoral reform to add to the Government's scrapheap of broken promises.
“It doesn’t take a lengthy report to work out that the present voting system for Westminster elections cheats the public of a real choice.
“People will conclude that ministers are simply scared to expose this fraud at the heart of our democratic system.”
