Controversial plans to hold inquests in secret will be brought back today.
The changes were dropped from counter-terrorism laws last year alongside plans to detain suspects for 42 days.
Juries, relatives and the press could be excluded from inquests under the measures to be outlined by Justice Secretary Jack Straw.
The plans have provoked opposition from military families who fear relatives may be excluded from inquests into the deaths of their loved ones.
I for one wouldn't be happy with not knowing the truth behind the verdict.
