Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 20 November 2013
191. Deputy Terence Flanagan asked the Minister for Health if he will report on the death of a person (details supplied); if the abortionist who caused the injury to the person is practising in any clinic in the UK that receives referrals from Ireland; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [49662/13]
View answerI would like in the first instance to offer my sympathies to the family involved in this very unfortunate case.
I have been advised that the circumstances surrounding this patient's death were investigated by the HSE under the National Incident Protocol following which 11 actions were recommended. I have been informed by the HSE that the Rotunda Hospital has now implemented all 11 recommendations.
I have no information on the other issues raised by the Deputy.
