The Gauteng Department of Health says it is working around the clock to decrease the number of post-mortem report backlogs in the province. SABCNews

There is currently a backlog of over 10 900 post-mortem reports. More than 2000 of those are at forensic chemistry laboratories and the rest are at forensic pathology laboratories.

The department says the filling of all funded posts as and when they become vacant has been prioritised to ensure that facilities have adequate human resource personnel to carry out the work.“There has also been a motivation for the review of the staff establishment and organogram in order to bolster the existing staff complement to cater for the ever-increasing Gauteng population and service demands.
