Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 October 2007. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

The hon. Gentleman raises a very important issue. We pay tribute in the House every time one of our soldiers fighting in Iraq or Afghanistan dies. However, the coroner system is not yet able promptly to answer the questions of bereaved relatives. We have included in our draft legislative programme a coroners Bill so that we can ensure that we treat bereaved relatives properly and provide them with answers to their questions.
