What are the arrangements for the costs of employing a deputy?
For full time coroners whose jurisdictions have a caseload in excess of 3,000 per annum, there is a payment provision for a deputy, with the payment to be based on a proportion of the caseload. The proportions are calculated by taking 80% of 11.5% of annual caseload. The resulting figure attracts the same cash sum as a part-time coroner with a similar caseload. (For those jurisdictions with a caseload of less than 3,000 per annum the provision for the payment of a deputy should be on the same basis as that for a deputy to a part-time coroner.) Where a part time coroner incurs costs in employing a deputy the local authority, following receipt of an itemised claim from the coroner, should reimburse the actual costs up to a maximum in any calendar year of 11.5% of the coroner’s salary and “county loading” (excluding high inquest weighting, long inquest payments, pension supplement and office expenses allowance).
