Question:

145 Deputy Fergus O’Dowd asked the Minister for Health and Children if she will publish the report (details supplied) and place the report in the Oireachtas Library; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [47360/09]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of the Health and Children (Deputy Áine Brady)

The Health Service Executive engaged Counsel to carry out the Non-Statutory Inquiry referred to by the Deputy. I understand the inquiry's report was delivered to the HSE in October 2009 and that the Executive is currently in discussion with the relevant parties involved. The question of dissemination of the report is a matter for the Executive.
