Families who are already struggling will be compelled to go into debt at a very difficult time coping with the loss of a loved one!

How can you this increase be justified. Taxing the people living and those that depart this life. It is a sad society that we live in today where thecdead persons last request cannot even be met due to the capitalist philosophy. Why not simply increase the charge 300%, why show 'mercy' ?

The increase in charges are far too high for the family of the deceased to bare. 55% increase is unacceptable.

The burial cost should not go up because it is beyond some people means to be able to afford that.

This is major cost to any family to cover at this time of bereavement
