Tag Archives: Mother and Baby Homes Update


Last night.

Mother and Baby Home activists Breeda Murphy, Eunan Duffy and Frank Brehany discuss the fallout from the UN envoy job offer to Katherine Zappone.

Ms Zappone served as Minister of Children and Youth Affairs from May 2016 to June 2020, a tenure often marred by criticism over her handling of the Mother and Baby Home issue by survivors, their families and supporters (and the UN).  Not least for her personal plea to Pope Francis (top), during his visit to Ireland in 2018, asking if the Vatican would contribute to costs for the exhumation of remains discovered at Tuam.

This is the 21st in a series of shows looking at all aspects of the Mother and Baby Home Report.
