Police and private contractors are continuing to search through a tip in Melbourne's north for the cremated remains of a stillborn baby.
The baby's remains were accidentally thrown out, Tobin Brothers Funerals spokesman James MacLeod told Fairfax Radio yesterday.
"Last week, it was reported to me that some cremated remains were missing that were in our care," he said.
"We immediately carried out a detailed investigation and found that they had gone out with waste through human error."
The search will continue today.
