Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
General Scheme of the Education (Supports for Survivors of Residential Institutional Abuse) Bill 2023: Discussion
Ms Carmel McDonnell Byrne:
Yes, extra funding because we only have one manager on five days, an assistant manager on two days and two part-time workers and that is it. I do a lot of the outreach, so I go all around the country. I am 68 years of age and should not be doing this. I have done 27 years of voluntary work and I feel it is time for me to sit back but I cannot until I know proper services are in place.
