Victims and Prisoners Bill

Moved by

Baroness Thornton

121: After Clause 28, insert the following new Clause—

“Victims of major incidents: registration of death

The Secretary of State may by regulations make provision for a relative to provide information in the connection with the registration of the death of a person who was a victim of a major incident, even if an investigation is conducted under Part 1 of the Coroners and Justice Act 2009.”

Member's explanatory statement

This is a probing amendment concerning the need for a qualified informant such as a relative of the deceased to be permitted to provide information to register the death after a major incident.
