Obviously, the word compensation would have to be in inverted commas because nothing can compensate for all of the things that were documented in the Ryan report, but ultimately people went through a redress scheme. A redress scheme does not remove the possibility of individuals within the religious orders being held to account through the legal system. Were any proceedings ultimately taken against people who were identified through the process? Who would have prosecuted such cases if that was the case?
