The current arrangements for publishing coroners’ reports and responses to those reports require improvement.

Recommendation
The current arrangements for publishing coroners’ reports and responses to those reports require improvement. The information published is the bare minimum and is difficult to search and analyse. The Ministry of Justice should provide funding so information about the risks to public safety discovered by coroners and inquest juries is freely available online, along with the actions that have been proposed in response. The MoJ should ensure that this information is well-organised and easily searchable. (Paragraph 208) Covid-19
