Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

In respect of the inquiry, I have previously said I do not want to see a situation where toothless Oireachtas committees would meet to talk about issues of serious concern such as the Shine case. I would like to be in a position to discuss the implications and the best thing to do with Deputy Adams and representatives of the Technical Group and to obtain advice on the best option legally. I do not want to go down the road of having an endless list of tribunals and inquiries, given that some tribunals and inquiries have been running for years. It is important that we find the truth. I want to have the Minister for Health meet the people involved in order that we can have an understanding that we can arrive at a decision as to the best way to proceed.
