HC Deb 19 April 1983 vol 41 c69W
Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will introduce legislation to amend the cremation regulations so as to remove the requirement for two independent medical certificates as to the cause of death of a person who dies in hospital, where a post mortem is carried out and the cause of death certified as a result thereof.

Mr. Mellor

I have at present nothing to add to my reply to the hon. and learned Member's question on 2 March.— [Vol. 38, c. 150.] Such a change would not require primary legislation.
