Amharc ar fhreagra433 Deputy James Reilly asked the Minister for Health and Children the position regarding a request by an organisation (details supplied) for an inquiry into the alleged activities of a doctor; if she will respond to the request; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [30921/09]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 372 and 433 together.
I met with the support group referred to by the Deputy at the end of June last and undertook to consider their submission which included a request for an independent inquiry. I have arranged to discuss the issues involved this week with my colleague the Minister for Justice Equality and Law Reform and the Attorney General before consulting with the Cabinet about any actions that could reasonably be taken in this regard.
