Public Accounts Committee

Special Report No. 96 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Child Abuse Inquiry and Redress

9:00 am

Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

The Department does not have a view separate to that of Government. The Government decision in that regard was announced on Tuesday, which was - in my understanding, though it is not under my direct responsibility - to allow the commission to complete its report in advance of considering the redress.
