The Government will seek a “clear strategy and a clear plan” as to how best to deal with the findings of the report into the Magdalene laundries, Taoiseach Enda Kenny has said.
The Government came under renewed criticism today following the refusal of Mr Kenny to issue a full apology to the women who spent time in the laundries, despite the fact that more than a quarter were sent there by the State.
Some Labour TDs say an apology is needed.
Minister of State for Mental Health Kathleen Lynch said it was her personal opinion that there should be an apology.
