I move amendment No. 19:

In page 14, between lines 13 and 14, to insert the following: “Report on provision of additional payments to those who experienced medical experimentation

19.The Minister shall, within 12 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 were subjected to non-consensual or illegal vaccine trials or any other medical experimentation while resident in a relevant institution, which shall include analysis of legal options to require pharmaceutical companies involved in such medical experimentation to contribute to the cost of such payments.”.
