Introduction
INTRODUCTION In August 2002 Mr George Birmingham SC presented a preliminary report on child sexual abuse involving Roman Catholic priests in the Diocese of Ferns to the Minister for Health and Children. Mr Birmingham had been asked by the Minister to investigate the background to allegations of child sexual abuse in the Diocese with a view to recommending an appropriate form and Terms of Reference for an Inquiry to inquire into the issue. As recommended by Mr Birmingham, the Minister for Health and Children established a non-statutory private inquiry to investigate allegations or complaints of child sexual abuse which were made against clergy operating under the aegis of the Diocese of Ferns. The Ferns Inquiry was established as a three-person team under the chairmanship of Mr Justice Francis D Murphy, formerly of the Supreme Court. The two other members of the Inquiry are: Dr Helen Buckley, senior lecturer in the Department of Social Studies, Trinity College, Dublin; and Dr Laraine Joyce, deputy director of the Office for Health Management. The Inquiry was formally established by the Minister for Health and Children on 28 March 2003. Counsel to the Inquiry was Mr Sean Ryan SC and Mr Declan Doyle SC. Mr Ryan was nominated as a Judge of the High Court in September 2003 and was succeeded by Mr Finbarr Fox SC. The Secretrary to the Inquiry was Mrs Marian Shanley BCL Solicitor. Solicitor to the Inquiry was Mr Joseph O’Malley BCL LLM Solicitor, of Hayes Solicitors, Lavery House, Earlsfort Terrace, Dublin 2. The Inquiry was assisted in its work by the following people: Stephen O’Brien BA, Administrative Officer of the Department of Health and Children; David Begley, Clerical Officer of the Department of Health and Children. -

On the Structure of Wealth-Holding in Pre-Famine Ireland1 Neil Cummins and Cormac Ó Gráda
Economic History Working Papers No: 317 On the Structure of Wealth-Holding in Pre-Famine Ireland Neil Cummins, LSE and Cormac Ó Gráda, University College Dublin December 2020 Economic History Department, London School of Economics and Political Science, Houghton Street, London, WC2A 2AE, London, UK. T: +44 (0) 20 7955 7084. On the structure of wealth-holding in pre-Famine Ireland1 Neil Cummins and Cormac Ó Gráda Keywords: inequality, wealth, Ireland JEL: N13, D31 Abstract Very little is known about wealth-holding and its distribution in Ireland in the past. Here we employ death duty register data to analyse and identify a sample of the top wealth holders in Ireland between the early 1820s and late 1830s. We examine the sources of their wealth and its regional spread, and compare them with their British counterparts. We also discuss the share of Catholics and Quakers among top wealth-holders. Introduction It seems safe to say that pre-Famine Ireland was a very unequal society, even by contemporary western European standards. Although in recent decades researchers have drawn attention to a previously ‘hidden Ireland’ of strong farmers and of a Catholic merchant class (e.g. Wall 1958; Whelan 1988; Cullen 2012), the chasm between the relatively small number of landowners who owned virtually all the land and the three million of so rural dwellers who relied almost solely on the potato for subsistence resonates more of serfdom than of industrialising Britain. Still, little is known about the wealth of the elite, and even contemporary Irish critics of wealth inequality in pre-Famine Ireland, such as William Thompson and Feargus O’Connor, had little insight into how great that inequality was (D’Arcy 1994; Large 1966). -

EQUALITY OMITTED REFORM: An exploration of ‘egalitarian’ and ‘efficiency’ principles in Irish health care provision within an institutionalist framework. by Patrick Malone A thesis submitted to the School of Political Science and Sociology In conformity with the requirements for The degree of Doctor of Philosophy National University of Ireland Galway, Ireland December, 2015 Supervisor: Dr Michelle Millar Internal Examiner: Dr Tony Varley External Examiner: Dr Vivienne Byers Abstract This thesis is an exploratory study of the theory and practice of equality in shaping modern policy conceptions of access and entitlement to health care provision. In most modern democratic societies, the principles of access and entitlement to sufficient health care services is characteristic of both a social right, which every citizen in society should possess, and an assurance, that in times of illness and vulnerability, social security is guaranteed. A central facet to the realisation of this principled obligation bestowed onto government is the degree to which a philosophical vision of equality permeates in the policymaking environment. Thus, a central question addressed in this thesis is the extent to which ‘equality’ featured as a core policy goal in successive health care reforms.
