Women of Honour hold 'constructive' meeting with Tánaiste as report due to be published tomorrow

The Women of Honour have said that they had a 'constructive' meeting with Tánaiste Micheál Martin today, ahead of the report's publication tomorrow

TÁNAISTE MICHEÁL MARTIN has told the Women of Honour group that the publication of an independent report into allegations of bullying and sexual harassment will be a “watershed moment”.

Speaking after the meeting with Martin today, Diane Byrne, a former Defence Forces captain and member of the Women of Honour, said that it was a constructive meeting but that the WoH did not receive specific details of the report. “We’ve questioned in relation to what the manner or the mechanism in which that will be done and will we have engagement in that process because we believe that in any of these things, there needs to be a victim-led approach to designing the solutions.”

Speaking to The Journal, President of PDFORRA Mark Keane said that there was “productive engagement” with Martin.
