"Thank you very much for that reply and for the information about Eurostat's work. The collection of information might seem like a very dry subject, but the problem at the moment is that, without such information, no proper research can take place into why people die very suddenly, particularly young people. As a result research is not carried out. In the case of cot deaths 20 years ago, we changed the classification and then more research was done. My follow-up question is more a request to the Commission - to whoever is responsible for Eurostat - that part of the training for those who certify death should look at the question of sudden unexplained deaths. At the moment, people often put down heart failure, for example, and then it is not clear that the death is totally and utterly unexplained. It is very important that training should focus on that particular issue.
I would also ask you to ask Eurostat to keep Members of the European Parliament informed in this area. The WHO is going to revise its guidelines at its meeting in October. I hope that, through cooperation with WHO, we will be kept informed about what changes are made and that we will see improvements in the kind of classification, which may lead to better research and the prevention of these unexplained deaths."@en1
