The report has revealed almost 2,400 allegations of historic abuse in Catholic-run schools in Ireland, implicating 42 religious orders and 844 alleged abusers.
Education Minister Norma Foley described the inquiry report as "a harrowing document" that includes some of the most appalling accounts of sexual abuse witnessed in these schools.
Survivors of abuse reported being molested, stripped naked, and drugged, highlighting how the atmosphere of terror and silence allowed such misconduct to persist undetected.
Several survivors indicated that their professional success was ultimately a means of coping with childhood trauma, illustrating the long-lasting effects of their experiences.
