Answer from Hansard

The Secretary of State for Health and Social Care (Yvette Cooper)

I also join in your words in support of Helen Haines, Mr Speaker. In the wake of the horrific cases we have seen in Hull, Leeds, Kent and elsewhere, the Government have announced that we will bring forward comprehensive proposals to ensure respect and dignity for the deceased in every setting, including proper regulation of the funeral sector, because everyone deserves dignity in death and every bereaved family deserves certainty that their loved one is being treated with care and respect.
