A minister has apologised to a grieving mother for a “tone deaf” letter demanding money from her the day after the death of her teenage son.
Social Protection Minister Heather Humphreys admitted “we got it wrong” and said the letter should never have been sent out.
Tracy McGinnis was a full-time carer to her son Brendan and his death last month at the age of 17 has left her convulsed by grief.
