Order of Business: Motion. - Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse: Statements.
Senator O'Toole asked the reason, when one is prepared to spend €1 billion on the inquiry, one cavils over the candle ends of administrative expenses. The difference is that the €1 billion to which he refers, if this emerges as the final sum, would go towards redressing the hurt of victims, rather than legal costs which are a different type of charitable object.
