Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The Government is willing to try to get this as right as possible. Every case that is brought to light has different circumstances attached to it. If the numbers are as large as has been surmised, then we need to reflect on how best to do this from Ireland's point of view. Ireland's shameful past is again in the spotlight. We are charged with the responsibility to get answers to these questions. Part of that is a commission of investigation working and sitting in respect of Tuam. It has not even reported yet but Deputy Connolly is asking me to direct it, the coroner and the Garda to do what is their independent responsibility.
