Your Role

Your role in a Coroner's investigation is very important and you have certain responsibilities. You should:

  • co-operate fully with the Coroner's office and promptly provide all information that is relevant to the investigation
  • inform the Coroner's office of any concerns or worries you may have about the death
  • wherever possible nominate one individual as the 'next of kin' for communication with the Coroner's office. This helps ensure prompt and accurate sharing of information
  • inform the Coroner's office of any change of circumstances, such as address or contact number, so you can be contacted promptly
  • not share information that the Coroner's office gives you if you are told that it is confidential
  • inform the Coroner's office as soon as possible of any specific needs you have for the inquest eg. relating to a disability, or if English is not your first language, so that reasonable measures can be taken

Specific standards of service that you can expect at particular stages of a Coroner investigation are set out in 'Standards of Service You Can Expect' within these website pages.
