Professor Sir Roy Meadow

EDM number 1413 in 2002-03, proposed by Tony Colman on 13/06/2003.

That this House notes that Professor Sir Roy Meadow gave pivotal expert evidence in the murder trial of Sally Clark, who was subsequently cleared by the Court of Criminal Appeal; further notes that Professor Meadow discovered Munchausen's syndrome by proxy and might therefore be expected to diagnose that syndrome more readily than other, more sceptical experts; deplores the decision of the Crown Prosecution Service to field Professor Meadow in the trial of Trupti Patel; and calls for an urgent review of all cases in which Professor Meadow has given evidence, including those in the Family Court.

This motion has been signed by a total of 63 MPs.
