South African-style 'truth commission' may result from discovery of mass grave in Tuam

Galway Bay fm newsroom - A South African-style 'truth commission' may result from the discovery of the mass grave at the site of the Mother and Baby Home in Tuam.

The idea's been suggested by the Minister for Children as a way to ensure some kind of justice for survivors of the homes around the country.

Katherine Zappone has today told TDs she will consider widening the current state inquiry to include ALL residential institutions.

But she's suggested so-called 'transitional justice' - like what happened after Apartheid in South Africa - as one option.
