It emerged last week that the Department of Health compiled dossiers on the family's of autistic children who have taken cases against the State.
A midlands TD is calling for the Dáil schedule to be suspended to allow a debate on claims the Department of Health compiled dossiers on the family's of autistic children who have taken cases against the State.
Denis Naughten has written to the Ceann Comhairle calling on the Health Minister Stephen Donnelly to make a clear statement on the issue.
The independent Roscommon-Galway TD described the claims in an RTE Investigates programme last week as 'disgusting'.
Yesterday the Data Protection Commissioner announced it was starting an inquiry into the handling of personal information at the Department of Health.
