Image: Brian Farrell MOTHER AND BABY home survivors and their families have the option of receiving a paper copy of the Mother and Baby Homes Commission of Investigation final report upon request, the Department of Children has said.
The long-awaited final report from the Mother and Baby Homes Commission of Investigation was released earlier this week. Independent TD Catherine Connolly said in the Dáil yesterday that members of the Dáil received the executive summary of the report ahead of survivors. She said that she found the narrative in the report “repulsive” and criticised the Taoiseach’s State apology issued yesterday.
“[The Department of Children] informed me by email that it was not their intention for survivors to have the hard copy executive summary, that’s all some of us have received, and it was never their intention that we would have it on time for Tuesday’s briefing, the webinar as it became known as,” Lohan said.
