Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I am simply asking whether the Government has given consideration to the announcement of an inquiry into the consequences of the activities of Dr. Michael Shine. We are aware that the Medical Council's fitness to practise committee dealt with this over 17 days, between 17 January and 21 July 2008. Since then, other witnesses have come forward to give evidence. It is a most serious case that deserves a most serious response.
