I will be brief. I thank the Minister. What he said was welcome to hear. For many of the volunteer groups, it will be welcome news. While having a database is important, the groups speak about how having access to original records for people whose loved ones went through this, for example, a copy book or something else that their loved ones produced, would mean a great deal.

By "non-redacted", I meant that the documents would be transferred to Tusla in a way where there would be no redactions. Therefore, the database would be much more valuable. I just wished to clarify that.
