The person referred to alleges that serious offences were perpetrated against her and other persons over a prolonged period. On 26 July, 2006 a meeting took place which included the person referred to, her legal representatives and officials of my Department. At the meeting the legal representatives of the person referred to handed over a substantial dossier of documents to the officials. The officials indicated that the dossier would be carefully considered. As part of that process the dossier has been forwarded to the Garda authorities for examination and report. The process of consideration is continuing and on completion officials of my Department will be in contact with the person's legal representatives.
