Was The Taoiseach's Apology Enough ?
The Taoiseach has apologised on behalf of the State to former residents of mother and baby homes for the way they were treated over several decades.

For reaction to the apology yesterday we were joined on the show by Catherine Corless, Campaigner and historian. Listen and subscribe to Newstalk Breakfast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
