Families who lost relatives to covid-19 are calling on the Government to honour its pledge for an inquiry, saying they feel betrayed as the latest deadline for a September start has now passed. 

On Thursday they will gather outside the Dáil to read the names of those they have lost. Advocacy group Care Champions will display its mobile Memory Wall which commemorates those who died during those years.
