Galway Bay fm newsroom – A Ballinasloe man is seeking leave to bring judicial review proceedings against Tusla in a bid to get all information that exists concerning his infant sister’s time at the Tuam mother and baby home.

73 year old Peter Mulryan, of Derrymullen is taking the action to find out what happened to his infant sibling, who was born at the home in 1954.

The High Court heard that Mr Mulryan is extremely ill with cancer and is anxious to find out what happened to his sister Marian Bridget Mulryan.

According to the Irish Times, records show she died in February 1955, just nine months after her birth at the home – but Mr Mulryan is unsure if she died, if she was trafficked, or if she is buried in the pit at the home.
