473 Mr. Kirk asked the Minister for Justice the number of post mortem examinations held in each county in Ireland in each of the years 1993 to 1995. [16238/96]
I assume the Deputy is referring to post mortems which a coroner has caused to be carried out in exercise of his or her powers under the Coroners Act, 1962. On this basis, the information requested is set out in the following tabular statement. Where two or more coroners hold office in any county, the table includes the details for those coronerships.
