No. 38 of 2020

Commission of Investigation (Mother and Baby Homes and certain related Matters) Records, and another Matter, Bill 2020

Public bill · Government · Presented

It sets out what happens to the records from the Mother and Baby Homes investigation when the commission ends. The main aim is to transfer key databases and related records to Tusla, keep the records properly managed and protected, and limit how they can be used, while also allowing copies of some materials to be held by the Minister. It also extends deadlines so the Personal Injuries Guidelines Committee can finish its work and the Judicial Council can adopt the guidelines on time.
