Maurice Quinlivan (Limerick City, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

When the Tánaiste was Taoiseach in July 2019, he made a welcome apology to the victims of child sex abuse in day schools. It was appreciated. This is now December 2020. The Tánaiste will be aware that the ex gratiascheme at the time was not fit for purpose. Thanks to the good work done by Mr. Justice Iarfhlaith O'Neill, the requirement for a prior complaint was seen to be nonsense, and due to the failure to address a number of people's issues, it was removed. My understanding is that the ex gratiascheme is still being reviewed. When will the review be concluded? Will the Tánaiste confirm that students who attended the Creagh Lane school in my constituency of Limerick City, which I have raised in the Dáil a number of times, will be included in the review?
