PM announces full inquiry into UK’s handling of crisis will be ‘within this session’ – expected to be a year
Boris Johnson has for the first time put a loose timeframe on launching a full public inquiry into the government’s handling of the coronavirus crisis, saying it would start in this session of parliament.
A session is usually around a year, although it could be longer. One recent session lasted from 21 June 2017 to 8 October 2019.
