The Garda investigation into the death of the person referred to has not been re-opened. However, the Garda authorities inform me that, following consideration of the matter, they have decided that they should conduct a review of the original investigation. This review is being carried out under the direction of a detective chief superintendent from the national bureau of criminal investigation.

Inquiries are ongoing, and all matters raised by the family will be examined and investigated fully by the Garda authorities in the course of the review.
