A woman who discovered she was illegally adopted and had her birth certificate falsified has called for a full, nationwide investigation into the scandal.

Theresa Hiney Tinggal has said any inquiry must not be limited to adoptees from St Patrick’s Guild, where at least 126 births between 1946 and 1969 were incorrectly registered.
