I propose to take Questions Nos. 1360 and 1430 together.
As the Deputies will be aware the Residential Institutions Statutory Fund Act 2012 provides that those who are currently eligible to apply to Caranua are those former residents who received awards from the Residential Institutions Redress Board or equivalent Court awards or settlements.
During the passage of the legislation through the Houses of Oireachtas, an undertaking was given to review the operation of the Fund two years after its establishment in the event of applications not resulting in a significant expenditure of the Fund. Following its establishment in March 2013, Caranua began to accept applications in January 2014. Accordingly it would be my intention to consider the question of a review of the operation of the Fund next year.
