A man in his 50s has pleaded guilty to a number of sexual offences against a girl who was under 17 at the time.

The offences happened in Dublin on various dates between January 2010 and March 2011.

The man, who cannot be identified at this stage, was due to stand trial on these charges but pleaded guilty to a number of offences when they were put to him during his arraignment hearing this morning.
