The Children’s Ombudsman is expressing shock that a child who was known to Tusla could have disappeared four years ago.
The young boy is now feared dead.
Niall Muldoon says he’s extremely concerned that the only response from the Government and Tusla so far to the case has been to refer it to the National Review Panel.
A search is expected to continue today and into the weekend for the remains of the missing child at a field off the Portrane Road in north county Dublin.
Aontu leader and Meath-West TD Peadar Toibin joined us this morning on The Agenda and said that it s hard to see why checks weren’t carried out.
Deputy Toibin also voiced his concerns regarding Tusla and how the whole system is managed in Ireland.
