My question relates to survivors of historical child sex abuse at Creagh Lane national school in Limerick and in other schools. The Minister for Education and Skills will be aware that the Dáil debated a motion on 4 July on this matter, and it was passed the following day. When will the Government publish Mr. Justice Iarfhlaith O'Neill's report, and will it now act on the will of the Dáil, as expressed in the July vote, and allow these people to access compensation for the awful abuse they suffered while attending these schools? So the Tánaiste is satisfied, in our pre-budget statement we have provided for the compensation money that would be required.
