There is going to be a need for State apology and atonement says Taoiseach
“I can’t see any scenario where there isn’t a State apology and I want to say today as Taoiseach I am so sorry. And I feel such a deep sense of sorrow, hurt, anger and disgust. And we will get this right.”
“We have to get this structure right, because what we don’t want is another process that goes on for years and years and years and years and years and doesn’t give people answers. So our first priority is to get the process right.” The Taoiseach said his position on the date of a general election was very clear. He had committed to the government running the full term, which runs up to March 2025. “I want the Government to go full term. I’ve said that, I haven’t changed my position on that. Full term means going full term. I don’t think any government has actually gone to the very final day of a mandate. But I want the Government to continue in office for the full term.
