Tusla to get new powers in wake of RTÉ crèche exposé
Tusla could be given new powers to shut down sub-standard crèches “immediately” and to tell parents of any investigations they are currently at risk of knowing nothing about.
The Department of Children will confirm the plans, alongside other potential measures including fitness-to-practice hearings which could bar people from working in the sector, at a meeting with TDs and senators this morning.
