Public health act funeral policy

What do we do if a will is found

We will not make funeral arrangements in cases where:

  • the deceased left a will, and
  • the executor is traced

In these circumstances the executor would be expected to organise the funeral. If the executor wishes to revoke their duties, they must:

  • make a formal renunciation of the will, and
  • declare that they wish to have no further involvement in the funeral arrangements
