Labour — Pontypridd

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 December 2024

Debate

Legislation on Funerals

Contribution

The Government recognise that there are serious concerns about the funeral director sector and that the legislation that governs what happens after we die is outdated. We are considering how to ensure that appropriate standards are introduced, including through the potential for some form of regulation. We have asked the Law Commission to create a future-proof legal framework to address what happens to our bodies after we die.
