The final report of a Children's Health Ireland-commissioned independent review into hip operations at three children's hospital is expected to be completed in a few months.
The review has been looking at a number of issues including the level of surgical interventions at Cappagh, Temple Street and Crumlin over several years.
A draft report is currently in circulation, however CHI said today that it cannot comment on a draft report.
It is understood that the draft report has been circulated for feedback from clinical and other staff affected by it.
When this due process is finished, and the final report is completed, it is expected that it will go to the Minister for Health and the findings will be published.
