Early day motion · EDM 29 · 18 Jul 2024

Coroner services

Tabled by Ayoub Khan (Independent) 6 signatures

The motion

That this House calls on the Government to properly fund coroner services, including non-invasive scanning equipment where post-mortems are required, with a view to reducing delays; notes that there are increasing delays in places including Birmingham in bodies being released after death; and expresses regret that this leads to extra distress for the families, especially among those whose faith dictates that burials must take place as soon as possible after the death of their loved ones.
