Public Inquiries
Dail Éireann — 2022-02-17
============================================================

Helen McEntee (FG), Meath East

No, it is not on my desk. The judge is independent in the work he is doing. It is important that I do not comment on, pre-empt or discuss what work he may be doing but I can say that any support required by him and his team has been provided. There is regular contact with the O’Farrell family. There are a few responses to be obtained. Once this is done, the judge will be able to produce the report. I appreciate that it is taking a lot longer than people would like. I would like to ensure the work done is thorough. There is no question but that this is the case. Regardless of what recommendations are made, I will absolutely take them on board, working with the Attorney General. We will respond to the O’Farrell family as quickly as we possibly can.
