It is indeed, especially as I had a friend who was old and ill living in that area at that time.

This has been simmering in and out of the news for some years and to my totally inexpert knowledge, it appeared very worrying from the first time I heard about it. I do not understand why it wasn't properly investigated from the time someone blew the whistle on it.

I appreciate that this particular committee could not instigate criminal charges but I do hope the police will pick the matter up and charges will follow.

It should also stop in their tracks those complaining about the new £100 charge to have independent Medical Examiners to verify causes of death in the majority of deaths where a inquest is not necessary.

This is truly chilling.
