BOROUGH CORONERS (REMUNERATION).

HC Deb 17 November 1920 vol 134 cc1925-6W

Mr. ALLEN PARKINSON

asked the Home Secretary whether he will give consideration to the remuneration of borough coroners, which is still calculated upon the same basis as before the War; and whether, in view of increases having been granted to many county coroners with the approval of the Home Office, he is prepared to amend the present statute so that increased fees may be paid to borough coroners?

Mr. SHORTT

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave to a similar question on the 11th instant.
