Body may be given full Monageer report

THE option of giving unedited copies of the Monageer tragedy to an Oireachtas committee is being considered, Health Minister Mary Harney has said.

The minister, who said further legal advice was being sought on the matter, stressed that the Government would prefer to publish the report in full.

Using Oireachtas committees as a means of highlighting the report is being considered because members of such committees have privilege on what they can say.
