The Taoiseach is not ruling out a State apology to survivors of Mother and Baby homes, with the government is due to receive the final report of the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes today.
The 4-thousand page report will be reviewed by the Attorney General before it's made public, which could take a number of months.
Taoiseach Micheál Martin says the government will also review the report before responding:
''We have to look at the report itself and suffice to say we'll make a very comprehensive response to this.
''I don't want to obviously preempt the report, I'd like to read it myself and obviously we won't be found wanting in terms of a comprehensive response''.
Earlier today, people Before Profit TD Richard Boyd Barrett, who was born in a mother and baby home, said he is worried that access could still be limited.
''It seems to me that the government have been operating on a definition of GDPR which is not the right reality''.
''And they’ve been doing that in order to limit access and limit openness and transparency when it comes to these records which are so important for individuals and indeed for an honest accounting for the history of this country''.
