Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 December 2024

Debate

Epilepsy: Sudden Unexpected Death

Contribution

I recently met the chief coroner. We did not discuss the specifics of this issue, but coroners have a statutory duty to investigate deaths that are not reported to them if they suspect that the cause is unknown, violent or unnatural, or that the death occurred in custody or other state detention.
