I do not think it is right to bankrupt the religious orders. The Government decided initially that the orders should not have to pay anything, but they came forward to make payments even though they were under no pressure to do so. I will never forget the moment I heard the Taoiseach's apology on behalf of the nation in 1999. Senator Ulick Burke was somewhat disingenuous yesterday when he said that the Taoiseach's apology rings hollow.
