Text

I thank the junior Minister for her response. I am sure that she will appreciate that many victims and survivors have expressed deep concerns about the posthumous date for redress, and, indeed, there are other concerns about the Bill. Will the junior Minister commit to listening to those concerns, and will she continue to engage with the victims and survivors of the mother-and-baby institutions, Magdalene laundries and workhouses?
