Public Bodies Bill [Lords]

I am most grateful to the hon. Gentleman. He talks of accountability. The bereavement and support charity INQUEST says that the Government's proposals to"““dismantle the office of the Chief Coroner””" will"““add yet another layer… to the… fragmented structure where lines of accountability are opaque and clear leadership is absent.””" The charity believes that accountability will be reduced if responsibility is given to the Ministry of Justice.
