Representatives of those who were impacted by the abuse uncovered in the Brandon Report are intending to pursue legal action against the HSE.
Today’s Sunday Independent also claims that staff members at the Ard Greine Court complex in Stranorlar are looking to pursue legal action over the matter.
A legal firm representing the group put the HSE on notice of the intended legal actions in relation to the ‘Brandon’ case last month.
The Brandon Report into historical abuse at the residential facility in Stranorlar found that a resident given the pseudonym Brandon, sexually assaulted at least 18 residents at the facility over a period of almost two decades.
A total of 108 incidents of serious assault were uncovered by the initial report.
Last week it was also revealed the HSE commissioned a follow-up to the Brandon report, raising fears more instances of abuse may be uncovered.
