The Independent Review Group on Child Deaths has commenced its work. It is intended that the Group will complete its work within a period of six months.

The HSE is in the process of validating details regarding the deaths of children in care over the last ten years. I would expect that the case referred to by the Deputy will be included as part of the validated list to be supplied to the Review Group. I will arrange to have the matter brought to the attention of the HSE.
