Pearse Doherty (Donegal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

I want to raise again with the Tánaiste an issue I have raised a number of times. This is the need for the Brandon report to be published in full. It found there were 108 incidents of sexual abuse perpetrated against at least 18 intellectually disabled residents by another resident between 2003 and 2016 at the Ard Gréine Court complex, Stranorlar, County Donegal. The publication of the report has been blocked at every turn by the HSE, the Garda and now by the Attorney General, according to reports in The Irish Timesand by RTÉ. The Attorney General has legitimate concerns relating to victims families' rights to confidentiality. Equally there are legitimate rights in the desire of some families to have the report published in full. If any family wants personal information withheld, it can be redacted and the full report published. Does the Tánaiste, who is leader of his party, agree? If so, what will he do to ensure the full report will be published?
