10 Deputy S.Y. Mézec of H.M. Attorney General regarding compensation paid to
people in the H.M. Attorney General's Office (OQ.117/2022)
Will the Attorney General inform the Assembly how many occasions in the last 5 years public money has been paid in compensation to people who have faced actions deemed unlawful from bodies which fall within his office's responsibility?
The Attorney General:
As I said in relation to the Deputy 's earlier question, I cannot comment on the XY case if his question relates to that. I will assume that the question he asks is a general one. I am not aware of any other occasion in the last 5 years in which public money has been paid in compensation to people who faced actions deemed unlawful, relating to any criminal investigation or any other action of an officer or member of the Law Officers' Department.
3.10.1 Deputy S.Y. Mézec :
Do we take it from his answer that a shorter answer would have just been one? The Attorney General:
There are points that I could make in relation to the Deputy 's question about whether there is one but I am not going to make those points because they relate inevitably to a live criminal investigation. I am afraid much as I would like to I cannot answer the Deputy 's question further.
