HC Deb 06 March 1967 vol 742 c224W
Mr. John Lee

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will consult with the International Air Transport Authority with a view to the introduction of legislation to relieve the next of kin of airline passengers, dying either on board aircraft or otherwise in transit, of the excessive cost of bringing their remains back to their country of domicile.

Mr. Darling

No. I see no need to interfere with normal airline practice in such a situation, but if the hon. Member has in mind a case where this has caused concern and he cares to send me details, I will consider the matter.
