Public Health Funerals

This dataset contains details of all public health (“paupers”) funerals conducted since 2011. It is updated on a quarterly basis due to the low numbers of such funerals within the district.

Under the Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984, when a resident in the area passes away outside of a hospital and there is no one else willing to pay, the Council will make the necessary arrangements for a public health funeral.

本数据集辑录了2011年以来开展的全部公共卫生（"贫民"）殡葬（public health ("paupers") funerals）相关详细资料。由于本辖区内此类殡葬的办理数量较少，该数据集按季度更新。

根据《1984年公共卫生（疾病控制）法案》（Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984），若本辖区内居民在医院外离世，且无其他方愿意承担丧葬费用，地方议会将为其安排公共卫生殡葬。
