Vol. 572 No. 3

Written Answers. - Vaccine Trials.

Olivia Mitchell

Question:

281 Ms O. Mitchell asked the Minister for Education and Science if the vaccine trials which took place in orphanages during the 1960's are subject to the competencies of the Laffoy commission. [22958/03]

The vaccine trials element of the Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse is a matter for my colleague the Minister for Health and Children and not a matter for which I have responsibility. In the circumstances, I have arranged for the Deputy's question to be referred to the Minister for Health and Children and I have requested that a reply issue directly to the Deputy.
