Funding for Justice for the Forgotten ceases on 31 July. The group recognises the need for cutbacks and has made some adjustments. Family members and persons associated with families have approached the group in respect of the legacy commission about their entitlement to the proposed payment of €12,000. Many of the families concerned would prefer to have a group advise or assist them in dealing with such a commission. Does the Taoiseach see a value in having Justice for the Forgotten continue to liaise, assist or counsel families associated with the legacy commission and payments, if the commission is formed and a payment of €12,000 is made to families?
