Following up on Deputy Cathal Crowe's question on an inquiry, the Minister said he is going to meet the family of Aoife Johnston. Does the Minister think there will be another inquiry in terms of an independent report? Much like Deputy Crowe, the line in Mr. Justice Clarke's report that frightened me was that there seemed to be nobody in charge. That really was the line that frightened me. I meet people, especially those in the older age category, who are afraid to go to the hospital. People are getting the wrong message. Is there going to be a statutory inquiry?
