Mr Kenny said the laundries had operated in a "harsh and
uncompromising Ireland," but he stopped short of a formal apology from
the government.
About 10,000 women passed through the laundries in the Irish Republic between 1922 and 1996, a report has revealed. The laundries were Catholic-run workhouses that operated in Ireland.
Mr Kenny expressed his sympathies with survivors and the families of those who died.
