Mother and Baby Homes Redress Scheme: Statements
Seanad Éireann — 2021-11-30
============================================================

Victor Boyhan (CC), Agricultural Panel

I thank all Senators who have contributed to the debate. Before I call on the Minister to reply, there were several mentions of the name Catherine Corless. That was a common theme. I would like to acknowledge, as I am sure everyone here would like to acknowledge, that, as was covered in the press, Ms Corless received a Red Cross lifetime achievement award two days ago for her work in Tuam and her advocacy around this whole area. We acknowledge that and wish her well.
