NPH Ireland are aware of the serious security incident that occurred yesterday, August 3rd,
with our affiliate organisation NPH International at their St. Helene property in Haiti. Seven
staff members of NPH International, including Gena Heraty, and also one youth were taken from the
premises in an incident that remains under assessment.

Given the evolving nature of this situation, we are withholding further comment until more
details are confirmed. We ask for discretion and patience as we manage this sensitive matter.

Our thoughts are with the eight individuals, and we remain hopeful for their safe return.
The Department of Foreign Affairs has been informed of the incident and is providing consular
assistance.
