I propose to take Questions Nos. 886 to 888, inclusive, together.

Since the Act came into effect, there has been one Commission of Investigation established under the aegis of the Department. Statutory Instrument No. 304/2007 established the Commission of Investigation (Leas Cross Nursing Home) Order 2007. The Commission reported in 2009. Its report is available at www.health.gov.ie/blog/publications/the-leas-cross-commission-the-commission-of-investigation-leas-cross-nursing-home-final-report-june-2009. I hope this clarifies the Deputy's question.
