MISSING MEDICAL RECORDS REVIEW

On the 15th July 2026, the Ministry of Defence published its findings after a 19-month investigation into the Missing Medical Records. Despite months of work and weekly meetings with LABRATS, the UK Government decided not to publish the recommendations alongside the report. They claim this was due to the change in Administration and a new Prime Minister.

Representatives from LABRATS viewed the documents before publication but were incredibly disappointed that the recommendations were not published and that a written statement was produced, rather than an oral statement to the house. By submitting a written statement, the government avoided scrutiny from MP's.
