Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, which police forces provide a family liaison officer in cases of (a) murder, (b) fatal accident, (c) unexplained death and (d) suicide.

We recognise that the role of the FLO is an important one, especially when supporting families during difficult times.

However, decisions to assign an FLO in specific cases are made by individual police forces, and such decisions would therefore be an operational matter.
