I propose to take Questions Nos. 27, 30 and 31 together.

The Government has noted the report of Judge Gerard Haughton arising from the scoping exercise into the circumstances surrounding the tragic and untimely death of Shane O’Farrell in August 2011.

I would like to once again express my sincere condolences and those of the Government to the O’Farrell family on Shane’s tragic death.

Judge Haughton submitted his final report to the Minister on 1 June 2022. I would like to thank Judge Gerard Haughton who conducted the scoping exercise and all of those who cooperated with this process.

Out of respect for the family of Shane O’Farrell, it would not be appropriate to discuss the conclusions reached by Judge Haughton until the report has been published.
