The commission of investigation into Ireland's mother and baby homes will be dissolved by law on Sunday night, in spite of calls to extend its lifespan.
It has faced criticism since its final report was published in January, with many survivors disputing its findings.
There was also controversy over its decision to delete audio recordings of former residents' personal testimonies.
Back-up copies were later discovered, but campaigners wanted an extension so the deletions could be investigated.
