Krankzinnig! Commission to decide fate of documents

CW (I.I.)
De Commissie die daar -achteraf - en midden in de politieke strijd een week na uitkomst van het rapport nu nog eens even over gaat beslissen????
Aannemende dat het bericht zou kloppen: wat een aanfluiting. De zoveelste. En wat een cynisme!

Members of the Child Abuse Commission are due to meet today to decide the fate of thousands of original documents detailing the abuse of children in institutions.

The commissioners are expected to order the retention of some documents for research and historical purposes, but the vast majority will be shredded, according to informed sources

Over the past decade, the commission has collected evidence from victims, as well as admissions from members of religious orders who were involved in or witnessed abuse.

The commissioners, who are understood to be overwhelmed by the response to their report published last week, will take steps to wind up operations now that their work is finished. Many of the staff and commissioners were seconded from other organisations and will return there once the inquiry body closes down.

The commission has no role in the awarding of legal costs to parties who appeared before it. This work is expected to continue for some years.

None of the material collected by the commission can by used by the Garda in any criminal prosecution arising from the review of the report ordered by Garda Commissioner Fachtna Murphy.
