"This government is committed to introducing posthumous pardons for people with certain historical sexual offence convictions who would be innocent of any crime now," the spokesperson said. "We will bring forward our proposals in due course."
Homosexuality was decriminalised in England in 1967, but thousands of people still have convictions for acts, the likes of which would not today be offences.
Backed by TV presenter Stephen Fry and actor Benedict Cumberbatch, who played Turing in the film The Imitation Game, the family of Turing have led a campaign to secure pardons for the 49,000 men convicted for similar 'crimes'.

The proposal was included in the 2015 Conservative manifesto and was supported by the Labour Party.
