The High Court has been urged to help a man find out what happened to his infant sister after she was born at St Mary’s mother and baby home in Tuam, Co Galway.
Peter Mulryan was described by his solicitor as elderly and “extremely ill” with cancer, the court heard.
His solicitor, Kevin Higgins, said Mr Mulryan, whose infant sister Marian Bridget Mulryan is believed to be among 796 children recorded as having died in Tuam between 1925-61, was too unwell on Monday to be in court.
Mr Mulryan is extremely anxious to get whatever records exist concerning her.
He wants Tusla to look at the material it has “and see what happened to that little girl, did she die, was she trafficked or is she buried in the pit”, Mr Higgins said.
