The revelations made on the RTE "Prime Time" programme confirmed all the concerns of Opposition Members. They showed a cursory examination of documentation by barristers, a failure to interview families who submitted allegations and a failure to access Garda Síochána files. The Minister must accept that this is not the response required in light of the scale of public concern. Will she look again at the independent review mechanism and introduce a new structure for some of the very serious cases that were brought to her attention?
