I move amendment No. 34:

In page 14, between lines 13 and 14, to insert the following: “Report on provision of additional payments to those who experienced forced family separation
19.The Minister shall, within 6 months of the passing of this Act, lay a report before both Houses of the Oireachtas on the potential to make provision for supplementary payments, in addition to any entitlement under this section to a general payment or work-related payment under this Act, to relevant persons who experienced forced family separation while, or as a result of being, resident in a relevant institution.”.
