Dáil to decide wording of abuse motion

VICTIM groups will not be consulted on the wording of a Dáil motion on child abuse in Catholic-run institutions which will be debated over two days when the House resumes after next Friday’s elections.

Dáil to decide wording of abuse motion

The whips from all parties will meet next week in an effort to agree the motion, which is likely to include an apology and call on the institutions to commit more substantial sums to the redress for victims.

A motion to this effect was passed yesterday but will be discussed in more detail when the Dáil sits late on Wednesday and Thursday, June 10-11, to discuss a broad range of issues surrounding the Ryan Report.
