Many years ago (about 20) I made an enquiry about the contents of a Coroner's Report into a caving fatality as part of my CIC dissertation and got absolutely nowhere with it because apparently (I can look up the original correspondence/letters if needs be) anyone unconnected with the individuals involved are not recognised as parties to the findings/conclusions. Thinking this kinda thwarted the whole point of a CR, namely that lessons could be learned and a wider audience might benefit from learning from the event(s), it irked. A lot of time has passed since then and perhaps the world has moved on significantly so my general query is this: where can anyone read Coroners' Reports into caving fatalities? Is it possible? My understanding (historically) is that you/we can't and no-one is any the wiser after the event. Am I wrong?
