I suggest the inquiry into the tragic case in which a healthy child was aborted be carried out by a judge as was the case with the Ryan report into the Church. It would be a whitewater and a waste of taxpayers money if the National Maternity Hospital pays someone to inquire into them.

My opinions are not swayed by the media or by public opinion which is understandably swayed by decades of anti RCC vitriole. I am every bit as subservient to God`s Church as I always have been. You see, I look at all that is and was good about the Church. That is not to say I am oblivious to its sins. My view on the EU is similar in that I think things need to change but I think we are better off in it than out of it.

What concerns me is that the Minister for health is permitting this waste of taxpayers money. The review into what happened at the NMH should not be commissioned by the NMH. The state should appoint a judge to examine it.

For all we know the NMH may be planning to interview multiple candidates until they find one that will do it their way and of course that could mean a total whitewash. Even if they just pick a name from a hat, the people (or person) commissioned might be mindful of the possibility of repeat business in future when they issue their report. That means some serious sugarcoating.

Timberrrrrrrr wrote: » This could also go for anyone who does the investigation, you think judges (you said one should do the investigation) are above reproach? So who/what company do you think should be commisioned to do this investigation that would satisfy your criteria? Also, what experience.would a judge have in these matters? The 1st thing he would do is bring in a company to do this investigation and write a report for him, the taxpayer would still be forking out for it which you said was unacceptable to you.
realitykeeper wrote: » Like a say, I judge should do the inquiry. No judges are not above reproach. A judge would have the similar experience to other judges who carried out inquiries in the past. A judge would call on witnesses and hear testimony. No judge in history has ever looked up the yellow pages to find some company to do his job for him. What is unacceptable would be for the MNH to commission the inquiry team.
