Derek McDowell

Question:

112 Mr. McDowell asked the Minister for Health and Children the investigation, if any, held into the removal of the remains of foetuses from the Coombe Hospital which was discovered on 16 March 2000; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9898/00]

Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Martin)

The matter referred to by the Deputy is the subject of an on-going Garda investigation and, therefore, it would be inappropriate for me to make a statement on this matter.
