Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

My Department is finalising its consideration of the review of day school abuse cases undertaken by the State Claims Agency, in consultation with the Office of the Attorney General and the State Claims Agency. I expect that following the Government's consideration of the matter, its response will be announced before Christmas.
