    About time and I hope they learn from previous inquiries. I am sure the religious orders will cooperate fully...

    Scoping inquiry into historical abuse announced (rte.ie)

    Minister announces scoping inquiry into historical abuse in schools.

    The scoping inquiry will also involve what the minister called a 'look back' exercise, looking at other inquiries and things that worked well or did not work well.

    Mary O'Toole will also be tasked with looking at current safeguarding measures in schools and to look at best practice.

    It will look at all schools run by religious orders and will engage with all the religious orders involved. The minister said the department had already written to the Spiritan order and had had "constructive engagement, but more is required".

    Speaking on RTÉ's News at One, Minister Foley said she had been "intensively engaging with survivors" since the documentary aired.

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?

    So, another consequence-free inquiry for the perpetrators. RCC for the win, yet again. Maybe it'll cost them some money - but will the order be shut down? Will they be banned from future contact with children? As long as that FF god-botherer Foley is running it, unlikely. Another inquiry to torment the survivors, publish a report and have those that testified be disappointed.
