Redress of £10k proposed for NI mother-and-baby home victims

Ms O’Neill said victims and survivors of mother-and-baby homes “have waited far too long to have access to the truth, redress and accountability for the suffering they endured”.

She added she was keen to progress the consultations as quickly as possible, and try “to be as sensitive as possible to victims and survivors’ concerns”.

“I hope that this initial payment for those who are eligible will bring some reassurance that we are committed to driving this forward.

“It is important now for us to see, listen and hear from those affected in order to inform the decisions we take with our Executive colleagues.”
