The primary legislation that governs the work of the coroner, an independent quasi-judicial officer, is the 1962 Coroners Act.

This Act has been amended on a number of occasions, notably by the Coroners Amendment Act, 2005, Civil Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, 2011, Courts and Civil Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, 2013, and S.I. 155 of 2009.
