Foreword by the Rt Hon Lord Cullen of Whitekirk KT
I published the consultation paper on 20 November 2008 in order to inform interested parties of the principal issues to be considered by the Review and to take their views on such issues. The paper did not set out a closed agenda. In fact, I made a point of welcoming suggestions as to other questions and options that were not mentioned in the paper.
There was a strong response to the consultation and I am grateful to those who responded for their contributions. It is apparent that there is a desire for reform in some areas of the fatal accident inquiry system. However, I intend to look further into individual topics before proceeding to my conclusions later this year.
