Finian McGrath: Truth of sex abuse cover-up allegations must be revealed

Allegations that officials tried to cover up alleged sex abuse in a foster home must be addressed by health chiefs, Junior Health Minister Finian McGrath has declared.

Mr McGrath has also said he wants to see two previous reports into the ‘Grace’ foster abuse scandal published, and that a Garda investigation may still be warranted.

His comments come after an independent report into the Grace case last week concluded that the HSE failed to properly investigate claims of a cover-up.
