Seanad debates

Order of Business: Motion. - Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse: Statements.
Senator Fitzgerald and others mentioned that there is no connection between the redress board and the commission. He and I know this, as do some other Members of the Oireachtas, but 99% of citizens do not. No attempt has been made to explain to them the distinction between both bodies and that they are working under two different legal heads. I have to blame somebody in Government for not making it clear.
