While the section amends section 37 of the principal Act, on Report Stage I intend to bring forward an amendment that refers back to section 17 on the matter of section 36 and the service of summons on the principal Act. It is merely an enabling provision to facilitate the serving of a summons on behalf of the coroner requiring the attendance of a person at an inquest as a juror or witness in the case of a death that is under investigation by the GSOC, for example.
