Ministerial correction made by Phillip Lee (Conservative) on Thursday, 13 April 2017, in the House of Commons on behalf of the Ministry of Justice.


Promession

Promession involves neither burial nor the burning of human remains and is therefore outside the scope of the existing legislation on burials and cremation. However, local authorities may offer the process, provided that they comply with other relevant legislation, such as environmental legislation.As such, it is not something that local authorities can offer.
