The fact that some survivors of the Tuam
Mother and Baby Home may have to take High Court cases to access records
of family members has been described as an “obscenity”.
Deputy Catherine Connolly says access to such files for survivors and next of kin is a “basic right”.Welcoming confirmation that the second interim report from the Mother and Baby Homes Commission will be published by the end of March, she said this however must be accompanied by an explanation as to why there has been such an unacceptable delay in its release.
