Did Caranua flag it up with the Department that 22 individual applicants were eligible? They came after the cessation date all right but they were eligible and perfectly entitled to redress. That was their right. That is the purpose of Caranua. That is what it was set up for. The body has not included them. Ms Downes said Caranua was unsure whether it was because the body had enough in the funds. Did Caranua contact the Department? Was the body concerned that there were 22 survivors of institutional abuse in this State who were not being taken on board?
