James Reilly (Dublin North, Fine Gael)

I wish to contribute on the same issue. I support my colleague. Those people have suffered terrible affliction through no fault of their own. In the past their parents were faced with what may be termed a "take it or leave it" solution. I hope the Government will take the opportunity on this occasion to negotiate a settlement with the remaining survivors rather than impose a settlement, as was done in the past.
