Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Ashworth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Public Bodies Bill [Lords].


Public Bodies Bill [Lords]

Like my hon. Friend, I supported the British Legion's campaign throughout the Bill's passage. I want to put something on the record briefly. Many representatives of faith communities in the city of Leicester have approached me because of their concerns that coronial services need to be improved across the piece and be sensitive to faith communities' needs. I wanted to put that to the Minister, but he was speedier than I anticipated. Does my hon. Friend agree that representatives of faith communities should sit on the bereavement committee that the Minister is establishing to advise on those matters?
