Bethany Home survivors disappointed over Government's refusal to extend 'fast track’ redress scheme

Survivors of the Bethany Home have expressed their disappointment at the Government's unwillingness to commit a ‘fast track’ redress scheme for ageing survivors of the institution.

The Bethany Home Survivors Group held a meeting with children's minister Katherine Zappone where it again asked her to extend the Residential Institutions Redress Scheme to include Bethany Home Survivors.
