My second question is to Ms Mary Lou O’Kennedy. I like the name like the Mary Lou, so I will ask Mary Lou. The Government is effectively telling some children that their separation and suffering is not worthy of compensation and telling women that their suffering could be worth as little as €5,000. What would a universal common experience scheme look like? Can Ms O’Kennedy expand on her call for an additional 12 categories of claim to be considered?
