Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Administration of Magdalen Restorative Justice Scheme: Report of Ombudsman

9:00 am

Mr. Peter Tyndall:

The Department did set out to publicise the scheme but the reality is that many of the highly effective non-governmental organisations, NGOs, voluntary organisations and others who have worked with the women have been more effective in getting the message across to people who were affected. It is a challenging task. I believe more could have been done but, thankfully, others were doing it so the message was got across to more people than would have been reached otherwise.
