Parents win son €2.2m pay-out for negligence at birth
The issue of further payments to meet the future care needs of Adam Aylward will be addressed later, in anticipation of the enactment of promised legislation allowing for staged payments in catastrophic injury cases.
Ms Justice Mary Irvine approved as “excellent” the settlement for Adam who, through his mother Deirdre, of Knocktopher, Co Kilkenny, sued the HSE, alleging negligence in the circumstances of his birth on Dec 5, 2003.
