I thank the Deputy for raising the matter. Since we raised this issue the last time, the outgoing Taoiseach outlined that there would be a redesign or a review of the redress scheme and that it would be changed. That work is under way. I understand that since the judge's determination at the time and the review, offers of compensation have been made to 13 survivors as a result of that report and review. I will meet the Department of Education and Skills on Friday. I hope to be in a position to get more specific detail and a report on the issue. I hope to give the Deputy a timeline then for rolling out the new redress scheme.
