[wpjulfbl] Coroner

How much power is there in getting to decide what gets recorded as the official cause of death?  It is often a single person who makes the call.  Is this power being abused?  The power of "the crown".  Cause of death statistics are often used to formulate policy, though surreptitiously manipulating such statistics to affect policy will probably eventually become discovered in the ineffectiveness of the policy.
