Investigation of Cork mother-and-baby home where hundreds died will go ahead

The Mother and Baby Homes Commission investigation of Bessborough mother-and-baby home will not be affected by the planned sale of the site, writes Conall Ó Fátharta and Noel Baker.

The Irish Examiner newspaper recently revealed that the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary have put the site up for sale. It is likely to fetch a multimillion-euro sum.
