Call for new enforcement body for public inquiry and inquest recommendations
Grenfell inquiry

BEREAVED families, lawyers and politicians called for the creation of a new body today to ensure state bodies and corporations cannot ignore life-saving coroner and public inquiry recommendations.

Deborah Coles, chief executive of the Inquest charity, called on the government to set up a “national oversight mechanism” at a Labour Conference fringe event jointly hosted by legal firm Leigh Day.

The mechanism would be an independent public body responsible for collating, analysing and following up on recommendations arising from investigations into state-related deaths.
