Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Administration of Magdalen Restorative Justice Scheme: Report of Ombudsman

9:00 am

Mr. Jimmy Martin:

The clarification was sought because in his report the Ombudsman referred only to industrial schools and training units. There were other institutions. We were not sure if he was limiting the reviews. That was the clarification we sought and the reason we sought it was to allow us to assess the numbers involved.
