Indefatigable North Kildare TD Catherine Murphy discusses the response received to a freedom of information request to the Department of Finance into the circumstances surrounding IBRC’s sale of Siteserv to Denis O’Brien owned Millington.
Just a little shady.
Ms Murphy TD sez:
“While the responses are heavily redacted, there are some key passages visible and they leave the reader in no doubt that there were serious problems in the relationship that existed between the IBRC – formerly Anglo, and the Department of Finance. Indeed at one point, the memo states that “…events over the past few months have led me to question the effectiveness of the management team in IBRC…I am concerned that the reputation of the IBRC and by extension the State has been damaged as a result of these events.”
