Coroners perform an important and very long-established role. In recent times there have been a number of important reforms brought about by the Coroners and Justice Act 2009. His Honour Judge Peter Thornton QC has recently been re-appointed as Chief Coroner of England and Wales - (an office specifically created by the 2009 Act). His new appointment is until 1st October 2016.
The Judiciary website has published a considerable amount of guidance relating to Coroners.
