The families of three Welsh soldiers killed while serving in the military are set to criticise Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon on Wednesday.
The parents claim there are continuing shortfalls in the MoD's handling of army deaths and they want an inquiry.
Welsh Liberal Democrat Leader Lembit Öpik has thrown his support behind the families' campaign.
The government has previously decided against a public inquiry into four deaths at the army's Deepcut base.
Des James, whose daughter 18-year-old-daughter Cheryl died at the barracks in Surrey in 1995, is one of those due to meet Mr Öpik ahead of a press conference.
