Galway Hospital consultants to leave Savita inquiry board

The Taoiseach Enda Kenny has told the Dáil that the three Galway hospital consultants on the Savita inquiry board will be replaced by experts from outside the hospital.

Mr Kenny said that the Minister for Health James Reilly has asked for those to be appointed to the Savita Halappanavar inquiry to have no association with University College Hospital, Galway.
