Probably the deepest research I've ever been involved in - but it has taken that to try build a picture of where our horses are going. One important element of this took our team into the country's only horse abattoir. The results shocked us. #rteinvestigates

The Dept of Health has been fined and banned from excessive data processing after an investigation sparked by whistleblower allegations on the collection of info on children with autism involved in High Court cases. Its worth looking at how we got here.

2years ago we broadcast a report (under a bit of pressure) that the Dept of Health said was untrue & wouldn't stand up. At 9:35pm on @RTE_PrimeTime @lydiamurph & I revisit it - after the Dept was found to behaved unlawfully. We speak to a family deeply affected. #rteinvestigates

Well worth tuning in to @RTE_PrimeTime now for @conncorrigan and @doireannoh revealing the miraculous bi-location skills of expense-claiming local councillors. Brilliant because they never would have imagined somebody would take the time to compare their claims. #RTEInvestigates
