The operator said it would transfer the ferry from Malta to Guernsey at the beginning of next month in time for the beginning of the service on 30 May.

He said it would previously take about three or four days for a body to be released from a hospital mortuary to a funeral director, but this was now taking 10 to 20 days."I've had to turn families away from coming to the chapel of rest because I can't make their loved ones presentable enough because of the length of time between the passing and the registration.

It doesn't need to happen."As a result of the delays, health boards are having to move bodies between hospitals to ensure mortuaries do not exceed capacity.Cwm Taf Morgannwg health board, which covers Rhondda Cynon Taf, Bridgend and Merthyr Tydfil, moved approximately 500 deceased patients between September and mid March, according to a BBC Wales Freedom of Information (FOI) request.

The health board said this was caused by "extreme pressure due to increased length of stay", adding it appreciated the time after death was "distressing" for families and that its priority during transportation was to "maintain the dignity of that person".Mr Griffith said he was not surprised bodies were being moved, but was shocked families were not being told.

"And again, during the transportation period they're unrefrigerated," he said.The school was locked down and remained closed the following day for investigations to take place.

Police and ambulance crews raced to Ysgol Dyffryn Aman, while helicopters circled above and the number of panic-stricken parents began building up outside its gates.With the pupils locked down inside, all the hundreds of parents assembling could do was peer through the railings and suffer the unbearable wait to hear if their sons and daughters were okay.
