Procedural Posture

Death Inquest / Pre‑inquest Review (first)

Legal Issues

  1. 1 Whether to conduct a consolidated inquest into 39 deaths
  2. 2 Scope and purpose of the inquest under the Coroners Ordinance s27
  3. 3 Disclosure timetable and adequacy of police investigation

Ratio Decidendi

Given the temporal and circumstantial commonality of the 39 deaths, the coroner will conduct a single consolidated inquest focused on determining identity, manner, cause, time and place of death and may make prevention recommendations; the coroner set a disclosure timetable requiring the police to deliver a full investigation report and directed procedural steps to progress to a hearing within 2024 where practicable.

Court Disposition

Preliminary directions issued; consolidated inquest to be held into 39 deaths; disclosure and procedural timetable set.

Orders

  • Coroner received preliminary investigation report dated 1 March 2024 containing 329 witness statements
