I am advised by the Director General of the Irish Prison Service that the inquest into the death referred to by the Deputy was held by the Cork City Coroner on 25 May 2010. The Court recorded a verdict of death by misadventure, with no recommendation made by the Court. An investigation was undertaken by the Irish Prison Service into this death and has been concluded. Arrangements are currently being finalised to communicate the result of the investigation to the Committee.
