also need to produce the ‘certificate of cause of death’, more commonly known as the death certificate.
The death certificate is given to you by a GP or hospital doctor.  In the event a coroner is involved, the issuing of a death certificate can be delayed.  A coroner is involved when there is to be a post mortem examination or inquest into the death.  A death certificate will not be issued until the coroner has conducted the examination or inquest.  This can take some time and can have an effect on the funeral plans.  Only certain people can register the death.  These include any relative of the deceased, any person present at the death, any person who lives in the house where the person died, or any person arranging the funeral, other than the funeral director.  On completion of registering a death the registrar will issue you with two certificates.  One of these is a white certificate to be filled out and given to the social security office in the area the person has died.  The other certificate is green and should be given to D L Hancock Ltd Funeral Directors as soon as possible.
