The father of three children killed by their mother at their family home in south Dublin five years ago has welcomed news that inquests into their deaths are scheduled to be heard before the end of the year.

However, the scope of the inquiry to be held by the senior coroner in Dublin, Myra Cullinane, has still to be determined.
