Irish Moriarty tribunal bid to gag press - Times Online
If Moriarty's final report contains the same as indicated in these draft findings then it spells huge trouble for a lot of powerful people.
A polite way of saying he thinks they were lying through their teeth.The tribunal documentation makes clear that Justice Michael Moriarty, the chairman, does not accept the evidence of some civil servants who testified before him.
why are the 'authorities' so p!ssed off with the preliminary findings?
is it because they believe there is an onus upon them to defend their loyal civil servants?
or is it because the findings play right into declan ganley's hands?
if the tribunal even hints at skulduggery in the awarding of the mobile licence to denis o'brien, then ganley is poised to activate the legal action he lodged against the state for compensation for his consortium not being awarded that licence;
i believe he is seeking hundreds of millions in compensation and if he's successful it'll hugely embarrass the government, eventhough the present shower weren't in office when the licence was awarded.
We should be careful about believing "leaks" in the media, seeing how many newspaper owners are connected to the various disappointed bidders. We have waited this long for the report, a few more weeks won't make much difference.
If engineers were wrong as often as economists, would anyone fly aeroplanes?
Pre-Tribunal Report newspaper articles will be all smoke and mirrors. Avoid it, it's designed to smokescreen in advance the actual facts presented by the Report. The PR game is a clever and long one. Always ask, why was this leaked, and what for?
well i hope the politicians above these civil servants get it in the neck too.
What does the Irish President spend their time doing. Work in progress

Then the only appropriate course of action is to not publish it at all. His first report was a joke- 600 pages of how charlie got money, two instances where he did favours (setting up a meeting and the grant of a passport) and then a conclusion that he devalued democracy. If he was alive at the time, charlie would have buried Mo in the real courts.
Let's also abolish the courts, we'd save so much money. And while we're at it, let's close down the Prison Service. We'd have saved a fortune if the state hadn't spent so much over the odds for a field in Meath. (When will a Tribunal be set up to 'investigate' that?)
