I thank the Minister for her answer. She has outlined the complexity of what is involved and the various groupings with which she has to liaise. I and the people involved are very interested in the human rights aspect of this and the scope of the work that the special rapporteur on child protection has done on that. They would also be very interested to hear exactly how the engagement with Galway County Council is progressing. I have discussed with the Minister in the past that those involved believed there were various roadblocks along the way. They would be interested to hear about the human rights aspect of this and how the role of the coroner and that of Galway County Council in this work is progressing. Those are the obstacles that they as a grouping have found difficult. They look to the Minister to relay what are her findings. It would be helpful if she could indicate a timeframe for this. Does she plan to have this at Cabinet before we break at the end of the summer session?
