HC Deb 25 July 1989 vol 157 cc606-7W
Mr. Ian Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will publish the report of the working party on forensic pathology; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Hurd

The report of the working party on forensic pathology is published today; a copy is in the Library. Copies have been sent to the Association of Chief Police Officers, the British Medical Association, the Royal College of Pathologists, the local authority associations and others concerned with an invitation to let my Department have their views on it by the end of October. My intention is to consider the report and any representations received as soon as practicable thereafter.
