The wife of one of Ireland’s richest men, JP McManus, has been stopped in her tracks, for now, from further extending a family home on a ‘millionaires’ row’ in Dublin 4.

A MAN who died of cancer two years ago was exposed to asbestos over a six-month period 40 years ago and yesterday his family was awarded €190,000 compensation.

DELAYS in finding a bed for a distressed patient at a Cork psychiatric unit may have contributed to her suicide, a Fine Gael TD claimed last night.

A WOMAN who took her life in the psychiatric ward was not on suicide watch by hospital staff, despite being told of two suicide attempts by her the same day.
