From a process and procedures point, there is a commission of investigation in place regarding mother and baby homes. Obviously, it is independent and must do its work. However, there is much public concern about the commission’s refusal to release information to affected family members on where their relatives are buried. I have spoken to some family members who say it is painful and shocking that this is the case. Has the Department expressed a view privately on this matter?
