Thomas Gould (Cork North Central, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

To clarify, the family were contacted, but only on Monday and only to say that there had been revelations in the media. They have not been formally contacted about what took place. There was an initial contact, but I have outlined the situation. I can contact the family after we speak and, if they are willing, pass on the details to the Minister.
