NORTHERN IRELAND
Derry Journal

The Historical Institutional Abuse Inquiry is to investigate two additional state-run institutions in Derry.

The inquiry has already investigated St Joseph’s Boys’ Home, Termonbacca, and Nazareth House Children’s Home at Bishop Street in Derry.

However, Fort James Children’s Home at Ardmore and Harberton House Assessment Centre in Irish Street in the city’s Waterside are also now to be examined.

Both establishments were controlled by the former Western Health and Social Services Board and have since closed.
