Evidence on coroners

The Justice Committee has launched an inquiry into the Coroner Service and whether enough improvements have been made since reforms were introduced by the Coroners and Justice Act 2009

The Ministry of Justice reviewed the Act’s effectiveness in 2015 but has not published the results. Sir Bob Neill MP, chair of the Justice Committee, said: ‘The Chief Coroner has said that many coroner areas have been neglected for years in the provision of resources.’

The committee is looking for written evidence submissions via its website by 2 September, 2020. Find out more at https://bit.ly/2Oo19kH.
