Following the Medical Council's investigation into the conduct of Dr. Michael Neary which found him guilty of professional misconduct in relation to ten patients, the Government decided in April 2004 to establish a non-statutory inquiry, the Lourdes Hospital inquiry, chaired by Judge Maureen Harding Clark.

I met the chairperson of the inquiry on 27 January last and received her report. However, I was advised by Judge Clark in the course of the meeting that the inquiry has received some additional information in recent days that will require to be considered and which will be dealt with by way of an addendum to the report. Judge Clark expects to complete the addendum later this week.
