I spoke about the Mother & Baby Homes Report last night in the Dáil. It’s a shameful time in our recent history where women and children were treated as less than second class citizens. What we can do now is fully acknowldege and support survivors, and put in place strong legislation for adoptees to ensure they have the basic right to their information and identity.
On a wider level, I believe we need to seriously look at the interdependence of our State with the Church, and the continuation of the delivery of state services by the Church.
