Cameron: Action on missing files 'absolutely right'
Prime Minister David Cameron said the Ministry of Justice were "absolutely right" to have taken action after files relating to three judge-led inquiries, including two fatal police shootings, went missing.
A member of staff has been suspended from the Ministry of Justice and an independent review has been set up to find out how the two discs containing the information went missing in early January.
The Prime Minister's official spokesman said: "The results of the internal investigation that the MoJ has undertaken have been set out by the department.
"It's absolutely right that they looked into that and have taken the action that they have."
