Extracts from the draft HSE report into the tragic death of Mrs. Savita Halappanavar in University College Hospital Galway last October were published in national newspapers yesterday and today and were commented upon in the media and now again. All our focus should be on the renewed distress that this has caused for the family of the late Savita Halappanavar and particularly her husband. The pain must be unendurable in having to revisit all these matters. The report has not been seen by the Minister for Health or officials in his Department. I entirely agree the leak is disturbing and unacceptable.
