Clause 29
Coroners and Justice Bill
8:30 pm
Jennifer Willott (Cardiff Central, Liberal Democrat)
Amendments 124 and 123 are common sense. I should be grateful if the Minister confirmed whether my understanding is correct. The clause states that the Lord Chancellor can ask the chief inspector to inspect and put together a report, but it does not mention whether the chief coroner will receive a copy of that report. I am sure that it is common sense that the person who is in overall charge should be able to see such a report and comment on it, but I should be grateful if the Minister confirmed that.
