The targeted amendments in this bill will go some way to support coronial cases to be dealt with as promptly and efficiently as possible, while not adversely affecting the quality of coronial findings and the judicial independence of coroners. In particular, the amendments will help to enable certain cases in the system to be progressed more efficiently. This, combined with the introduction of associate coroners, will also help to relieve the pressure on coroners by freeing up their time to enable them to focus on more complex cases.
