Redress move for women who worked in Magdalene Laundries ‘utterly scandalous’

The comments were made at an Oireachtas committee hearing to discuss the Ombudsman’s report into the administration of the Magdalene Redress Scheme, published last November.
Ombudsman Peter Tyndall said he had yet to receive a formal commitment from the Government that all recommendations from the report would be implemented and was scathing in his criticism of how the scheme had been administered.
