Delay hits report into patient’s death
In October, Health Minister Mary Harney described the report into the death of 75-year-old Patrick Joseph Walsh, from Killanny, Carrickmacross, Co Monaghan, as “a matter of urgent public interest and patient safety.”
In a written Dáil answer on October 25 to Sinn Féin’s Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin, Ms Harney promised the report would be completed within eight weeks.
