Lord Pendry – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Pendry on 2015-10-05.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by Earl Howe on 3 February (HL4351), what advice was provided to the incoming government about reforms of the death certification system, and whether they will publish that advice in full.

Consideration of reforms to death certification is on-going in the context of the Spending Review. The Government has no plans to publish the advice given by officials to Ministers.
