A city councillor has called for the Western Distributor Road in Knocknacarra to be renamed in memory of the children who died in Mother and Baby Homes nationwide.

Councillor Cathal O’ Conchuir says the scandal is ‘our holocaust’ – and the most innocent and precious lives that passed away in the homes must be remembered.

He’s to request that the road be renamed ‘Bothar Mathair agus na Leanai’.
