A woman challenges Ireland’s 180-day residency rule for redress, calling it unconstitutional and discriminatory after her application was denied.
A woman is challenging Ireland’s 180-day residency rule for the Mother and Baby Institutions Payment Scheme, arguing it is arbitrary and discriminatory after her 2025 redress application was denied despite being separated from her mother as a newborn and enduring lasting emotional harm.
Her lawyers say the rule excludes up to 24,000 potential claimants, undermines the 2021 State apology, and violates constitutional rights by treating similarly situated individuals differently.
The case, now before the High Court with her identity protected, seeks to invalidate the rule as unconstitutional, with a decision pending.
