Simon Coveney has said that the Government will be bringing the findings of the mother and baby homes report to the attention of the Holy See.
Responding to an enquiry submitted by Social Democrats TD Holly Cairns, which saw Ms Cairns asking for the minister’s views on whether the final report of the Mother and Baby Homes Commission of Investigation would be submitted to the Holy See for an official response, Mr Coveney reiterated the Government’s apology to those who ended up in the mother and baby homes.
He added that the Government has already raised the Commission’s work with the Vatican.
He continued by saying that the Irish Ambassador to the Holy See has been asked to bring the “important” report to the attention of the Vatican.
