State-related Deaths (National Oversight Mechanism) Bill

This bill establishes a national oversight mechanism to investigate and review deaths that occur in state custody or involving state agents (such as police, prisons, or armed forces). It creates independent scrutiny of how these deaths are handled, aims to improve transparency in investigations, and establishes clear procedures and accountability standards across the UK. The mechanism would ensure consistent investigation practices and enable families to access information about staterelated deaths more effectively.
