A federal judge on Monday ruled the Trump administration acted unlawfully when it created a centralized database that contains Americans' private information, which she said has since been used by some states to incorrectly remove U.S. citizens from their voter rolls. https://t.co/8duQeohEgs
Minister for Health Jennifer Carroll MacNeill has said she would like to see all groups affected by issues at Children's Health Ireland (CHI) to engage with the independent facilitator, who is trying to scope out issues for a statutory inquiry. @FergalBowers
The scoping exercise started in March, at which point the facilitator was appointed.
Speaking at an opening of a new surgical hub in Swords, Co Dublin, she said the Government has not committed to any form of inquiry yet, and there are a range of models to examine.
Parents have said there were a number of unpublished internal CHI reports which were not being looked at as part of the inquiry.
Co-lead of the Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Paediatric Advocacy Group Úna Keightley said that the group has written many times to the Minister for Health about the inquiry, but have not received a response.

Apparently, Lamine was a bright-eyed boy until he held up a Palestine flag. Then, he became controversial.
The journalists who make a living romanticising athletes like Muhammad Ali are the first to punish those who try to use their voice for something meaningful today.
In a series of attacks that are beginning to feel coordinated the BBC's Jeremy Bowen has been accused of prejudice against Israel. In this article for British Journalism Review Irfan Chowdhury and I investigate whether these accusations make sense:

Miriam Adelson just donated another $25 million.
Citizens United didn’t give corporations “free speech.”
It let billionaires buy elections and legally bribe politicians.
End Citizens United.
‘Sad day for Ireland’s future’: In a letter to Higher Education Minister, 2,300 academics criticise Research Ireland’s strategy, saying it is an assault on Ireland’s research ecosystem, with too much focus on industry interests https://t.co/9KWo3rgzt5
🇫🇷France: Following moves in 🇪🇸🇮🇪🇳🇱🇧🇪🇳🇴 to comply with international law and ban trade with Israel's illegal settlements, a draft law with the same goal will be tabled in the French parliament tomorrow by a trio of Socialist, Green and centrist (MoDem) MPs

Divide & Conquer - so unfair from the Minister
It is Two groups representing families involved in the Children’s Health Ireland (CHI) spina bifida scandal have pulled out of a scoping inquiry. Representing at least 900 families!!
Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Paediatric Advocacy Group, along with the Scoliosis Advocacy Network, have said that the terms of reference of the inquiry do not meet the needs of those at the centre of the scandal.
These children and their families deserve better than this.
It’s not just his goals… Messi’s contribution to Argentina is incredible. What he sees, the time, the space, the killer pass. He plays a different game to everyone else. Ronaldo can’t lace Messi’s boots right now. It’s not even a competition anymore.
My thoughts today are with the two survivors. Their courage and dignity have been evident throughout the reporting of this case and in the strength it took to give evidence in court.
I stand in solidarity with them, and with all survivors of abuse.
Dark humour for a dark story
THE PSNI have stood down all riot units after conviction of vile paedophile and former DUP leader Jeffrey Donaldson, safe in the knowledge that Loyalist gangs find nothing objectionable about him nor the offences he committed
