Brothers get €48k in case against RTÉ exposé creche

Two brothers, who attended a creche identified in an RTÉ exposé about the mistreatment of children, have been awarded a total of €48,000 damages in the Circuit Civil Court.

The court heard yesterday the settlement offers had been made by Giraffe Childcare without admission of liability.

Counsel Gareth Kinsella told the court Jamie Doyle, now aged 8, attended Belarmine Giraffe Creche in Stepaside, Dublin, from July 2009 to May 2013 and his brother Mark, now aged 5, attended from 2012 to 2013.
