Apparently in Scotland, procurators- fiscal do not have the power to handle overseas deaths.There have talks between Harriet Harman, the constitutional affairs minister, and the Scottish Executive to try to strike a deal that would allow the 450 procurators-fiscal who conduct fatal accident inquiries to have responsibility for inquests. But as yet have got nowhere.
