The government has announced a public inquiry will be held to investigate the deaths of the victims of the 2017 Manchester Arena attack.
Home Secretary Priti Patel said it was “vital that those who survived or lost loved ones” get the answers that they need.

“This process is an important step for those affected as they look to move on from the attack and I know that they want answers as quickly as possible,” she added.
