Er..also, your Catholic league source with the physicians quotes isn't a compilation of multiple reports, its just the physicians' testimony all of whom worked in the laundries from a single report, the McAleese Report.
And it seems your Catholic leage source ignores the entirety of the inmates' testimony in chapter 19, which is a collection of testimonies from 118 survivors, whose testimony contradicts the testimony of the physicians employed there. There's plenty of criticism of the McAleese Report, particularly that the Irish government was complicit in overseeing the work at the laundries and even sent a few thousand women there, yet they still assigned an internal investigation to take place.
