If the @DeptCDE genuinely wanted feedback they’d have sent this to anyone who’s had the misfortune of having to use it. Anyone who has used #Birthinfo should do this survey. #MotherandBabyHomes #Adoptee

🧵1/5 My experience of the @tusla tracing service for #adoptees has been an absolute farce. I got my redacted #birthinfo, appealed it & got 5 extra pages, still heavily redacted 🙄 I got a phonecall from Tusla saying I was on the #DNA expert waiting list.

@danielmloftus We could start with @tusla. The public are under the misconception that adoptees now have access to all their #birthinfo, Tusla give as little info as possible, every adoptee needs to appeal their info as the majority of redactions are unwarranted under GDPR

🧵1/2 This section of the 3rd Implementation Report of the #MotherandBabyHome Action Plan is very vague. Of the 16,000 applications for #BirthInfo how many were appealed? 8,300 applications for #Tracing but no breakdown of successful traces.

2/3 changed his surname. @tusla stated there was no more they could do because there was no official records of him in Ireland. Are Tusla unaware of their #birthinfo remit? They have recourse to publicly accessible documents in England, Scotland, Wales & NI

A very moving story about an #adoptee born in #Bessboro #MotherandBabyHome It also points out the failings of the deeply flawed #birthinfo that has failed so many including myself.

At the beginning of her life, my mother was born in a mother & baby home with the third highest death rate in Ireland. At 15 days old, my mother was sent in a taxi to an adoption home halfway up the country with her mother. Her mother would visit her a few times by...

“We’ve had 5,500 applicants who have applied for their information - and they’ve all received their information.” Would be nice if people actually received their information [without redactions]. (Or at a decent image quality to read what’s there.) https://t.co/JHlIFPmJSR

After 40yrs of being told never, I recently received my #birthinfo #adoptioninfo, & I feel so grateful to have had 2 sets of #Parents who made my life what it is. Now my #ADOPTION tattoo has names on all 3 sides ❤️
