Press Release

12 Months ago, Frank Brehany’s latest book, ‘A Magdalene Rose’, enjoyed its Global Book Launch in Monmouth in South Wales. The success of that launch was followed by 3 successful launch events in the Republic of Ireland in September 2025.

On this date, 54 years ago, Mary Julia Breheny died within the infamous High Park Magdalene Laundry in Dublin having spent over 40 years in that Institution. Frank Brehany (See Note 1), has today formally launched a bid to bring his draft Bill, also known as “Mary’s Law”, before members of the Oireachtas in the hope that he can secure support or sponsorship for this important initiative.
