I wonder if CCBC are charging the government for the use of this facility, and how much ?
A temporary mortuary will not be mothballed as health chiefs try to make sure they are prepared for any potential second wave of the coronavirus.
Conwy council offered industrial units on Mochdre Commerce Park Back in April to use as a temporary mortuary to ease the pressure on hospitals ahead of any potential surge in deaths due to Covid-19.
The mortuary, which services all local authorities in North Wales, had been left on standby as the crisis eased.
There was speculation it might be stood down but it will stay for time being after it emerged recently the region’s three Rainbow Hospitals will be retained in case there’s a second wave of infections.
When asked how long the mortuary would stay in commission a spokeswoman for Conwy county council said: “We are continuing to monitor the situation across the region and, as such, no specific timescale can be confirmed at present.
“Whilst we’re all hoping for the best, we must plan for the worst case scenario, which includes the potential for a second wave, and keeping this facility is part of those arrangements.
