Nearly 200 adult asylum seekers were mistakenly placed in Tusla child accommodation over the past three years, with cases more than doubling. Confusion persists over whether Tusla or the IPO is responsible for age assessments, prompting criticism from TDs. Sinn Féin is calling for a more robust system to protect real minors, especially after a murder case revealed another supposed “minor” was actually an adult. New legislation is being developed to fix the process.
Will there be funding to allow them follow the fix all legislation ?

No this is impossible. I know from reading and being radicalised by r/Ireland that ALL asylum seekers are upstanding people and would never do this so I don’t know where they got the info in this story but it’s simply false
The headline is very passive. Nearly 200 adult asylum seekers fraudulently presented as children, is the story.
Given the scale of the issue we’ll probably have to start doing invasive tests on all older children coming to Ireland, subjecting genuine child asylum seekers to further misery in their presumably difficult lives. Still, better than housing them with adults I suppose.
200 out of how many?
edit: Ireland took 18,651 asylum seekers last year, 198 lied about being under 18, so we are talking about 1.06% of them here.
That’s pretty damning, but is anyone actually surprised? There’s is next to zero governance and when people can take flights here or up north using a passport they later destroy and still get protection status, how are we to verify? Too many people making a fortune from this, it’s beyond ridiculous. I agree that Ireland has a responsibility, but this is not sustainable.
Almost all children later turn out to be adults…
They should be auto deported for lying on their application
Why are we allowing people into the country if we can’t verify their details absolute lack of common sense in this government.. madness.
“This is the one thing we didn’t want to happen”
Anyone who pointed this out before now was called racist.
Say I’m a 20 year old immigrant, what’s the advantage for me to pretend I’m a child? Is it more likely my asylum claim will be accepted? Or something much worse
