Dail Éireann — 2026-02-24
============================================================

Darren O'Rourke (SF), Meath East

A number of survivors of industrial and reformatory schools were on hunger strike last year. There were commitments on behalf of Government to provide health supports. Could the Taoiseach say when those health supports will be in place? Related to that, on the Dáil schedule tomorrow there is, "Apology related to childhood abuse (hunger strikers) (working title): Statements". Is that apology going to be for all survivors? Could the Taoiseach be specific in relation to that? Have they been notified of that apology?
