<p>The Cremation (England and Wales) Regulations 2008 require that, in order for a
cremation to proceed, the crematorium medical referee must scrutinise the application
and associated medical or coroner forms before authorising a cremation.</p><br /><p>An
application made in Wales may be for a cremation in Wales or a cremation in England.
A medical referee in Wales may not be a Welsh speaker, and a medical referee in England
will almost certainly not be a Welsh speaker.</p><br /><p>Applications in Wales must
therefore be made in English, to make sure that the medical referee can understand
and authorise the cremation in a timely manner wherever the cremation is to take place.</p>
