Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 March 2023
720. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Health if the IHREC submission (details supplied) requesting a human rights-based inquiry into residential care during Covid 19 has been reviewed; and if so, his views on the submission; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15275/23]
View answerThe submission referred to by the Deputy has been made to the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission (IHREC), which is an independent body. Consideration of the submission is a matter for the IHREC under Section 35 of the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission Act 2014 and it is not appropriate for me or the Minister for Health to comment on it.
