Department refuses to share records concerning post-1980 laundry row

A solicitor for women who worked in the High Park Magdalene Laundry has been refused information by the Department of Justice in relation to a dispute over whether they worked in the laundry after 1980.

A total of 14 women who were in the An Grianán training centre after 1980 and who worked in the High Park Magdalene laundry in Dublin have yet to receive a provisional offer for redress from the department.
