The investigation by the Health Information and Quality Authority, HIQA, into the care provided by the HSE to the named individual commenced earlier this month. While the exact duration of the investigation cannot be fixed, it is predicted at this stage that HIQA will complete their Report by October 2007. In the case of the second person named by the Deputy it has not yet been decided whether it might be necessary for HIQA to initiate an investigation.
