Magdalene survivors demand report

Survivors of the Magdalene Laundries have appealed to the Government not to allow another year go by without redress for their suffering.

The Justice for Magdalenes group said it was disappointed that 2012 had come to an end without publication of the final report of a committee established 18 months ago to examine state involvement with the laundries

Minister of State for Justice Kathleen Lynch told the Dáil three months ago the report would be made public by the end of December at the latest.
