An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business
Dail Éireann — 2026-07-14
============================================================

Richard Boyd Barrett (PBP), Dún Laoghaire

As somebody who was born in a mother and baby home, I find it pretty despicable that the Government has not stated its intention to stop a private, profit-driven developer from building on a site where the mother and baby home commission has said there are likely burials and where 19 mothers and 859 infants remain missing. The Government can overcome the obstacles if it wants to. It must demand that the site be taken into public ownership.
