Historical school abuse commission

Summary

Deputy Connolly welcomed the commission of investigation into historical sexual abuse in schools and asked that it be debated in the Dáil.

There has been a very welcome announcement that there is going to be a commission of investigation into every allegation of historical sexual abuse in every school in the country. Are we going to have a debate on that in the Dáil? Is it going to be on the agenda next week? We are going to finish next week. We need to learn from previous commissions of investigation, and it should be debated in the Dáil.
