Two Dublin hospitals have said they will reconsider releasing documents to the Lindsay tribunal, over which they are entitled to claim privilege. St James's Hospital will consider the issue at a board meeting on April 6th, and the Adelaide and Meath Hospital, incorporating the National Children's Hospital, has said it will also reconsider the matter at a meeting on Thursday.

The Irish Haemophilia Society has sought the release of the documents which relate to legal advice which passed between the hospitals and their advisers.
