Freedom of Information data for public health funerals

The list is updated in April, July, October and January for the previous quarter.

Information regarding Public Health funerals falls within the scope of sections 31(1) FOIA and 21. In refusing to provide some information, the Council takes into account the provisions of section 31(1) (a) of the Act.

Section 31(1) creates an exemption from the right to know if releasing the information would or would be likely to prejudice the prevention of crime. It is the Council’s view that to disclose the details of the assets of an estate before the Government Legal Service has completed their enquiries would provide an opportunity for criminal acts such as theft and fraud, to be committed against the estate.

Section 31 of the Freedom of Information Act applies to the names and full addresses of the deceased.

Section 21 of the Freedom of Information Act confirms the Council is not required to provide information in response to a request if the information requested is already available to the public.

Information published on the Bona Vacantia website is available on the Government Legal department page (GOV.UK website).
