[edit]

[edit]
  • 3 September – A Government-appointed inquiry revealed that 2,395 allegations of sexual abuse had been made in 308 primary and secondary schools run by religious orders across Ireland, spanning a 30-year period.

  • 6 October – A newspaper story was published that an unnamed Oireachtas politician had been recruited as a spy by Russia, using a honeytrap approach (seduction).

  • 18 October – An Uisce Éireann document seen by the broadcaster RTÉ's Prime Time team said that more than 40 years will be needed to correct wastewater treatment problems and public water infrastructure deficiencies in Ireland.

  • 19 October
  • 20 October – The teenager who received inappropriate messages from Niall Ó Donnghaile revealed he was 16-years-old at the time, contradicting a claim by Mary Lou McDonald that he was 17 and called for her apology for the party's "disastrous handling" of his case, saying her tribute to Ó Donnghaile when he resigned was "like a mental stab".[120]
