Recommendations

My position in this specific case does not detract from a general expectation that there should be a system in place for early and sensitive notification to a deceased’s family.
Under section 28 of the 2016 Act, each recipient of a recommendation must respond within 8 weeks. The window from publication ran to 29 May 2013. See how we track responses.
