Funeral Directors: Refrigeration Survey
April 12, 2023 by funeral-industry-news No Comments | Category Uncategorized
The Scottish Government is seeking to understand how many funeral directors in Scotland have, or have access to, refrigeration or cold room storage for the storage of the deceased. This information will help inform the Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment (BRIA) that is required for the Scottish Government to implement the Funeral Director: Code of Practice.
If you are a funeral director in Scotland, we would be very grateful if you would be willing to answer a quick survey here. We kindly ask that responses are received by Friday 28th April.
If you have any questions or wish to provide further information, please contact burialandcremation@gov.scot.
