The list of proposals was released by the NSW coroner’s court on Wednesday as the coronial inquest into the deaths of Ashlee Good, 38, Jade Young, 47, Yixuan Cheng, 27, Pikria Darchia, 55, Dawn Singleton, 25, Faraz Tahir, 30, and Joel Cauchi, 40, at Westfield Bondi Junction on 13 April 2024 draws to a close.
