Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions
Dail Éireann — 2023-07-06
============================================================

Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I am conscious that I am before Dáil Éireann. I was hopeful I would be in a position to communicate my intentions to the Women of Honour group today. I am minded to recommend to the Government a public tribunal of inquiry. It is a matter of trying to tease through the mechanisms by which we would try to protect certain people who might wish to come forward but not be in the public glare. I think the argument has been made that if we go for a commission of inquiry, that will be very much secret - at least, that is the language that has been used - or confidential, to put it that way.
