Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 2 November 2004
455 Mr. Timmins asked the Minister for Education and Science the position on an institution (details supplied) in County Dublin on the list of residencies on the Schedule to the Residential Institutions Redress Act 2002; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [26914/04]
View answerIn accordance with section 4 of the Residential Institutions Redress Act 2002, additional institutions may be included on the schedule of institutions contained in the Act, providing the facility was subject to inspection or regulation by a public body.
To date, no records have been identified that would indicate that a public body had a regulatory or inspection function in relation to the institution identified by the Deputy and as a consequence it can not be considered for inclusion at this stage. In the event that records are identified that would indicate that a public body had a regulatory or inspection function in respect of this institution, the matter will be given further consideration.
