Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what progress he has made on enabling coroners to investigate stillbirths; and when he plans to publish the outcome of the public consultation entitled, Consultation on coronial investigations of stillbirths, that closed in June 2019.

The Lord Chancellor advised in the House of Commons on 9 June that the Government is working to publish our report later this summer. I will be happy to meet you with my colleague at the Department of Health and Social Care to update you on progress with this work.
