I would firstly like to extend my sympathies to the families of the deceased.I have been in correspondence with the family on the matter. Officials from my office met with them as recently as 16 May last. The family have supplied me with information in relation to their concerns. This information has been examined by officials in my Department and I have now sought further legal advice from the Office of the Attorney General. When this advice is received I will be in a position to consider the matter further.
