Tribunal of inquiry likely in Ireland

The Irish Examiner reports here that there will be a public Tribunal of Inquiry to investigate charges of abuse in the Irish Defence Forces. Excerpt:

The Women of Honour group earlier expressed “disappointment” that the terms of reference had not been substantively changed.

A spokesperson said: “We will be opposing this plan and will be communicating this to all other party leaders.

“It is very disappointing that, despite in-depth discussions and the efforts of so many, comprehensive terms of reference will not be put forward to Government.

“We remain of a view that the Department of Defence is having too much influence in this matter.”
