Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

General Scheme of the Education (Supports for Survivors of Residential Institutional Abuse) Bill 2023: Discussion

Mr. Patrick Rodgers:

The advice I got from speaking with someone who works at quite a high level in training benefits there is a suggestion that secondary level change to legislation would not necessarily be as difficult or as complex as people think it might be. We could certainly have a look at that. Obviously, that may be a bit more time consuming so clarification would be the first step we look at. Once we have clarification then we can review what we want to do, including speaking to MPs about what is going on and what the Irish Government can do to liaise with their British counterparts in dealing with that.
