The solicitor who represented the woman at the centre of the Kerry Babies case says there is no need to exhume the bodies of the babies for DNA analysis.
It follows calls by retired Garda Detective Inspector Gerry O'Carroll, who was involved in the investigation 30 years ago.
It was this day back in 1984 that the body of a baby boy was found stabbed to death on White Strand beach in Kerry - leading to a murder trial and tribunal.

Joanne Hayes was charged with the murder of the baby that was found in on White Strand in Caherciveen. However the charge was later dropped when the body of a second baby was found at her family's farm in Abbeydorney.
Gerry O'Carroll maintains that Joanne Hayes had twins despite the Kerry Babies Tribunal concluding that she had just one baby. He is calling for a DNA analysis to be carried out.
But Tralee solicitor Pat Mann has told Radio Kerry that an exhumation is unnecessary and that DNA analysis of tissue would lay the whole thing to rest.
