The consultant pathologists said the facilities were 'a gross affront to the dignity of the deceased'

The complaints were made in a letter to the South-South West Hospital Group in Cork last October by four pathologists and first reported by the Waterford News & Star newspaper.

In the letter of 18 October 2018, the consultant pathologists said the facilities were "a gross affront to the dignity of the deceased and bereaved". Sinn Féin TD for Waterford David Cullinane said the contents of the letter were extremely disturbing and alarming. In a statement, the HSE said that University Hospital Waterford had recently received approval for a new replacement mortuary building.
