Sinn Féin: Michelle O’Neill urged to correct record over teenager’s age

Mr Ó Donnghaile, a former Belfast lord mayor, was suspended by Sinn Féin over the issue but the party allowed him to resign on health grounds in 2023 without revealing the complaint against him.

McDonald confirmed on Monday that she will respond “fulsomely” to the boy’s account of the matter and would correct the Dáil record to confirm the right age.

“It is very important that the record of the Dáil is accurate, so of course it will be corrected,” McDonald said.

McDonald is also expected to issue a full apology to the teenager.

“He will be given a full unequivocal apology. For me he is a young person who deserved to be fully comfortable within Sinn Féin. What happened to him was wrong,” she said.

“Niall Ó Donnghaile’s behaviour was unacceptable and utterly inappropriate. No young person should have experienced that.”
