View answerIn accordance with its terms of reference, the Mother and Baby Homes Commission of Investigation investigated 14 Mother and Baby Homes and 4 County Homes – a full list of the Homes investigated by the Commission is available on my Department’s website.
On the dissolution of the Commission, the records relating to the Institutions investigated by the Commission were transferred to my Department. The institution referred to by the Deputy was not one of the institutions investigated by the Commission of Investigation.
If a person is seeking records relating to an Institution which is not included on the list of the Mother and Baby Homes and County Homes investigated by the Commission of Investigation, they may wish to forward a subject access request directly to the organisation in question.
