I will say a final word on this. We know that a coroner is obliged to act when somebody dies in State care or custody or when remains are found in their district. The Garda is obliged to act when there is a missing person. Nobody has ever acted on these sites. The fact that there now has to be discretion and that the Government might act just adds to how people will feel about the long list of inaction.
