Sorry that my discussion with you somehow involved a gray market. In reading your comments, there are some groups of bereaved that dont seem to justify a policy change, and there are examples like above that become prioritized.

Do you think a new restrictive law of any sort should be based on bereavement, and who chooses whose bereavement is more important than anothers? What you folks do in Scotland is fine with me, for the purposes of this discussion, is any of your bereavement ever given enough importance to change laws, or is it a one way street?
