Debate

Funeral Directors: Regulation

Contribution

I am very cognisant of that fact. We will discuss in our interministerial meetings how we can involve the profession early in that regard. While the vast majority of funeral directors already operate with professionalism, the actions of a small minority have undermined public confidence. We are determined to ensure the security, dignity and care of the deceased across all settings. That is why we are committed to setting out the Government’s decision on regulation in our full response to the Fuller inquiry phase 2 report in summer 2026. Question put and agreed to.
