Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank the Deputy. It will absolutely be survivor centred and survivor led, but it will be chaired by a judge or retired judge. Very simply, the timeline is as soon as possible. In fairness to the Tánaiste, though, he wants to engage with the people most affected by this before coming up with terms of reference and committing to a timeline. I think that is only reasonable. There certainly will not be any delay due to a lack of urgency or political will, but it is important we engage with all of those whom we need to take part in this to make sure it is done and done well.
