Cabinet agrees plan on mother-and-baby home information

A Government statement this evening said the cabinet had had a "detailed reflection" on issues raised in recent days, and said it "acknowledges and regrets the genuine hurt felt by many people".

However, this will not be an absolute right, and anyone seeking to get information from the archive through GDPR will have to prove that their application does not infringe on the rights of others. The Cabinet has agreed that additional resources will be made available where necessary to ensure those rights are fully implemented.

"There is universal agreement across all Ministers that we want to see this report published as quickly as possible," Minister O'Gorman told RTÉ News.

Yeah via Tusla? May as well burn the records now.

RepealTheSeal

Does this mean that section 86(2) of the Adoption Act 2010 has been amended/repealed and adopted persons have access to their birth records in the register of births?

This country/government a disaster...

That means nothing, I was allowed access my 'personal' data before and it was my name and address and age. Took 3 years for them to fix my age, and they never showed me anything they didnt consider my 'personal' info.

He knew GDPR was applicable BEFORE he sealed the documents - this was clearly outlined to him by the Data Commissioner & human rights lawyers. So why did they seal them? What are they hiding and what will they deem usuitable information to release?

With Tusla 🙄 This information should be with a special independent criminal investigations unit

Well ORDER tusla to follow through and give out the information that people want

Clarification?, report the news, it’s a welcome uturn in the face of rising anger of the public.

rodericogorman I want a birth cert. I'm 51. My passport says I was born in Dublin I was adopted in Cork. Where am I from? Who am I? Why do I have to ensure Nuns Priests are protected when I was not?

When? After they are dead? Waiting list long as your arm is Tusla. Further insults.

About fu*king time ..🦊🇮🇪 but will they really..

No more like the government seen a petition with 193,000 people, this u turn wasn't off their own back.

But what about researchers and other academics who want to tie together an understanding of what happened?

So hysteria for nothing?

Government to set up archive of records related to institutional trauma in 20th centuryThe government this evening released a statement on Mother and Baby Homes, saying it 'acknowledges and regrets' the hurt felt by people in Irish society ‘We’re sorry ye feel how ye do’ is such a FG apology. i.e. it’s not an apology. Honestly how the hell are we continually putting up with this bullshit. Lazy ass legislation, constant inefficiencies, budget overruns (to put it mildly), casual corruption at every turn and absolute peak incompetence at every level of management. When is enough, enough? When?

Who are the others? Mothers Fathers Priests Staff Nuns GOVERNMENT So i have to ensure their rights are protected before I can obtain my information? IF this Country had proper leadership the head line would read, Minister confirms Mother and Baby Home survivors have unobstructed and assisted access to personal records, this is their lives here not the states. So? that's a basic data protection right. You need access to all records that relate to you not just your personal ones, there is a difference. Isn't there?
