LYNDSEY TELFORD – 11 JUNE 2013
A planned compensation scheme for survivors of the Magdalene laundries will be published in the next two weeks, the Taoiseach has confirmed.
Enda Kenny said he expects Justice Minister Alan Shatter to bring the report to Cabinet this month when the Government will consider recommendations for a redress process.
“Once the process is decided upon, there will be no delay on the Government’s behalf in following through on this,” Mr Kenny said.
“I do hope it will be possible, together with the women involved, to deal with that process and deal with it in their interests.”
