Kathleen Chada, who had not been able to speak publicly since last year about her two sons Eoghan and Ruairí who were murdered by their father, has welcomed the change to Section 252 of the Children’s Act.

Ms Chada told RTÉ News at One that “for want of a better word” she was happy about the change, but it was a bittersweet day.
