50 children from across Donegal are holding a protest outside Leinster House this lunchtime, calling for 100 percent redress for their mica-affected homes.

The Minister for Agriculture told the children that an updated redress scheme for homes affected by mica will be published in the next two to three weeks.

These two seven year old girls say they’re worried Santa won’t be able to come down the crumbling chimney this Christmas:

"Maybe Santa won't come at Christmas, because all the chimneys are cracked, all the homes of little children thinking that they might not have a home for Christmas is just breaking my heart, I had to come up to Dublin three or four times, and like, I don't think we should need to do that with the Government."
