Anne Rabbitte: My question has to do with mother and baby homes. Statements are ongoing again in the Dáil this morning in respect of this. Does the Minister see the mother and baby homes, the particular scope of works being done, coming to completion this year? Will we have a finalised document at the end of this year?

Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Communications (4 Jul 2023)

Peadar Tóibín: The more I reflect on the various State apologies issued, the more I become convinced that the Government does not mean a word of it. Tomorrow we debate the amendments to the mother and baby homes Bill. The Minister, Deputy O'Gorman, snuck in a number of amendments in the Seanad. In my reading, amendments Nos. 4, 5 and 6 would exclude countless women from the redress scheme who were sent...

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (18 Sep 2019)

John Brady: Paul Graham, a survivor of the Bethany Home, has challenged the Government to explain why it has refused to pay redress to the home's former residents.

It will be a new-build. The land is available on the St. Vincent's University Hospital campus....

Clare Daly: I hope the terms of reference will be debated here also. It is a big project and must be done right, but there must also be a certain urgency in this regard. There is a certain irony that while the Minister was meeting the survivors last week and the Taoiseach was here stating that all allegations of sexual abuse should be thoroughly investigated, some of the victims of such practices in...

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (22 Feb 2023)

Richard Boyd Barrett: I want to return to the issue of the mother and baby home redress scheme. As the Taoiseach is aware, I was adopted and I spent an uncertain amount of time in a mother and baby home. I am acutely aware that the vast majority of adoptions, where mother and child were separated, were a result of the stigma and pressure that was put by a frankly twisted morality of church and State about...

The Coalition of Mother and Baby Home Survivors state approximately...
