My Department has referred the report supplied by the Deputy to the Health Service Executive for appropriate action.

The case referred to is currently with the Coroner and as such the hospital concerned is precluded from making any comment at this point. I am advised that the relevant hospital consultant met with the family last July to discuss the matter.
