Proceeding contribution from Lord Lloyd of Berwick (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 26 October 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Coroners and Justice Bill.


Coroners and Justice Bill

One does not want to increase the number of persons who can authorise entry, search and seizure, but the noble and learned Baroness has made a strong case that the coroner should be able to do so in certain cases—probably a limited number—without having to go to the senior coroner for written authorisation. I therefore support the amendment.
