Child Abuse Reports

My question is in the context of the utter failure of the State to protect three young children. The Central Criminal Court was told last year that they were sexually abused and raped on a weekly basis between the ages of six and ten while they were in foster care in Tuam, County Galway. The independent review panel took over to conduct an investigation. It is now 2019. The first disclosure was in 2007, the second in 2011 and the next in 2013, and we have no result from the independent review panel.
