Fred McBride to step down as Tusla chief

Tusla, the child and family agency, will begin the recruitment process for a new CEO after incumbent Fred McBride made the shock announcement that he is leaving the post at the end of September.

The Dundee native had taken on the top job in Tusla in February 2016, having first joined as chief operations officer in October 2013, working under fellow Scot Gordon Jeyes.
