Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Garda Homicide Statistics: Discussion (Resumed)

9:00 am

Ms Laura Galligan:

Every year the OSP gets referred cases from hospital pathologists, which require forensic pathologists. I question how they were dealt with at the scene. They were looked on as a natural death as opposed to a suspicious death and the body was transferred to a hospital but the hospital pathologist said the State Pathologist was required. These are the cases.
