The Justice Minister Frances Fitzgerald has requested a report from An Garda Síochána on information relating to the Tuam babies case.
In a statement, the Department of Justice said “It is very important that we address these disturbing issues as sensitively as possible. There is no doubt that coverage over the last few days will have inevitably evoked very painful memories for people, many of whom are now quite elderly”.
“There is now an interdepartmental process under way to examine how this complex, disturbing and tragic situation can be best addressed”.
The Department says it has also been liaising with the gardai “so that the information available to them can feed into the interdepartmental process”.
