Question:

152 Mr. Neville asked the Minister for Health and Children if brains were retained for research purposes with or without the knowledge of the dead person's relatives. [14082/03]

The Deputy will be aware that the post mortem inquiry, chaired by Ms Anne Dunne SC, is investigating all post mortem examination policy, practice and procedure in the State since 1970. I await her report and I intend to lay the it before both Houses when I have considered the inquiry's findings and recommendations.
