Written answers

As the Deputy is aware, the Health Service Executive has appointed a four person Inquiry Team to establish all the factual circumstances in relation to the case of Ms. Y and the chain of communication between different service providers. The inquiry team seeks to establish the full facts surrounding the matter including the sequence of events and the care given to the woman involved. It would not be appropriate for me to comment on this matter prior to the publication of the Inquiry Team Report.
