Families of the three people killed in the June 2023 Nottingham attacks told a public inquiry that every agency failed in its response. The comments came at a Monday press conference in London after 14 weeks of hearings.
The inquiry examined actions by authorities in the years before and after the stabbings. " They urged the government to meet them within the next month. " She added that the families want to speak with the prime minister, attorney general, home secretary and justice minister.
The inquiry heard that Nottinghamshire Police had an outstanding arrest warrant for the attacker at the time of the attacks. " Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust dismissed 11 staff members for inappropriately accessing medical records after the attacks.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct launched five investigations into police forces. The inquiry chair is expected to release recommendations in spring 2027. Families said they would examine every legal option and continue pressing for change.
