Last year, the then Minister for Justice and Equality said the coroners (amendment) Bill was the absolute priority for the Government and it is on the Government priority list. The Bill will introduce mandatory reporting, post mortem examination and inquests in cases of maternal death, as Deputy Clare Daly has sought for some time in her Private Members' Bill. There have been repeated delays in bringing the Government's Bill forward. I have expressed concerns here on a number of occasions. When will we see the Bill?
