NORTHERN IRELAND
BBC News
Sisters of Nazareth nuns have given their evidence to Northern Ireland’s Historical Abuse Inquiry in a “haphazard and piecemeal fashion”, the inquiry has been told.
The inquiry is investigating abuse claims against children’s residential institutions from 1922 to 1995.
On Monday morning it heard that some statements came as late as last Friday.
This was despite the initial request for documents being made in November 2012.
The inquiry’s senior barrister, Christine Smith QC, welcomed the apology the nuns made at the hearing earlier this month.
