answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/06/2015 answer text <p>This Government opposes caste discrimination. We are aware of the Employment Appeal Tribunal judgment in the case of Tirkey v Chandok which opens the possibility that a legal remedy for claims of caste-associated discrimination already exists under current legislation, namely the ethnic origins element of Section 9 of the Equality Act 2010. We are considering the implications of the judgment for discrimination law and specifically for the duty on caste in Section 9 (5) of the Act.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 08/06/2015 11:21:03 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/06/2015 answer text <p /> <p>The Ministry of Justice does not collect data on the types of cases referred to coroners. However, it does collect data on the conclusions recorded at inquests.</p><p> </p><p>Coroners cannot by law investigate cases in which a child has not lived independently of its mother. They can open an investigation if there is any doubt over whether the child has lived independently, once they have received a report of a death. They can also investigate perinatal deaths which occur in the six days following birth. The Chief Coroner, HHJ Peter Thornton QC, is considering actions to improve consistency and good practice in relation to neonatal deaths.</p><p> </p><p>The table below sets out the number of inquest conclusions which were recorded as stillbirths. This information is also published at <a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/collections/coroners-and-burials-statistics" target="_blank">www.gov.uk/government/collections/coroners-and-burials-statistics</a>.</p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Year</p></td><td><p>Stillbirth conclusions recorded</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2008</p></td><td><p>7</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2009</p></td><td><p>13</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010</p></td><td><p>8</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011</p></td><td><p>14</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012</p></td><td><p>11</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013</p></td><td><p>12</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014</p></td><td><p>6</p></td></tr></tbody></table> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 03/06/2015 16:01:37 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
