Long-awaited report into incineration of 18 babies' organs being finalised

The report was expected in October or November 2021

Families protested outside Cork University Maternity Hospital over June at the delay in providing them with the report.

A report into the incineration of 18 babies' organs without the permission or knowledge of their parents is currently being finalised.

Correspondence received by the 18 families on Thursday notified them that the review undertaken following the incineration of organs from Cork University Maternity Hospital in Antwerp in 2020 is now being finalised by the review team.
