Some 624 women held in Magdalene laundries have to date received a lump
sum payment of more than €23m under a government redress scheme. According to Justice Minister Frances Fitzgerald, some 807
applications have been received under the Magdalene Laundries
Restorative Justice Ex-Gratia Scheme.
She said 103 applications were refused, as the women had not been admitted to one of the 12 specified institutions.
