Margaret Murphy O'Mahony (Fianna Fail)

I rise to welcome the announcement by the Minister, Deputy McEntee, of a commission of investigation into historic sexual abuse in day schools and boarding schools. When one thinks of abuse, one is inclined to think of the homes that were going at the time. They forget that it happened in boarding schools and schools, just because a child was going to school and going home at 3 p.m. Between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m., in many schools, many bad things happened.I welcome that the Minister is doing this. I would like to bring her before the House so she can go through the terms of reference and what she intends doing with the whole thing. It is very important we get this right and acknowledge the awful things that did happen in regular schools and not just homes. I would like that she come before us, please.
