Calls Issued for Inquiry into CHI Following Whistleblower Claims About Harvey Sherratt's Care - 10/11/2025
from The Agenda
The parents of Harvey Sherratt (9) who suffered while waiting for scoliosis surgery want a “full, independent inquiry” into Children’s Health Ireland (CHI) following a whistleblower’s claims that CHI removed their son from its active spinal surgery waiting list after it wrongly determined he was a “palliative” patient.Sinn Féin TD David Cullinane has suggested modelling the inquiry on the 2018 Scally inquiry into the Cervicalcheck scandal which involved a sweeping, four-month inquiry.He added that any inquiry should be guided by advocate groups and parents impacted by CHI alleged failings.He said that Harvey’s parents, Gillian and Stephen, will meet the Tánaiste on Wednesday to discuss a potential inquiry.Deputy Cullinane joined us on The Agenda this morning to talk to us some more about this.
