Caranua, the Residential Institutions Statutory Fund Board, is an independent statutory body established pursuant to the Residential Institutions Statutory Fund Act 2012. It is the Board of Caranau, which is representative of survivors, that would have approved the changes to the eligibility criteria for accessing funds. I have asked Caranua to respond directly to the Deputy concerning the changes this matter.
