Mother And Baby Home Survivors Want Commission To Explain Why Evidence Was Deleted

There are calls for the chair of the Mother and Baby Homes Commission of Investigation to give evidence to TDs and Senators over the deletion of some witness testimony.

Fianna Fáil Senator Erin McGreehan will raise the issue at the Oireachtas Children's Committee today, however, due to Covid-19 restrictions it is unclear when a hearing could take place.
The Commission's report into the institutions found 9,000 children died in 18 of the homes between the 1920s and 1990s.
Susan Lohan from the Adoption Rights Alliance says survivors are angry that their original testimony has been omitted.
