Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs
Report of the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes: Engagement with the Minister for Children, Disability, Equality, Integration and Youth
Mark Ward (Dublin Mid West, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
The Minister has no recollection. The reports the Minister has are summaries and not verbatim or full testimonies of the oral hearings. I believe that, in respect of what was said already and the dissolution of the commission, we need to resolve some of these matters at this time. These are the questions people are getting in touch with us about. They do not believe their testimonies have been reflected in the report. The absence of something verbatim or a full transcript of oral testimony amounts to a big gap in the report. It is something I will follow up on.
