Incineration Of Foetal Remains In NHS Hospitals (EDM1231)

Incineration Of Foetal Remains In NHS Hospitals

EDM number 1231 in 2013-14, proposed by Robert Flello on 31/03/2014.
Categorised under the topics of Death, Health services and Medical ethics.

That this House is deeply concerned about recent reports of the incineration of foetal remains by NHS trusts, two of which were found to have burnt the bodies of aborted or miscarried foetuses and babies to generate power for heat; and calls on the Care Quality Commission to investigate fully UK hospitals to understand how widespread this practice has been.

This motion has been signed by a total of 23 MPs.
