Justice emails review
Deputy Róisín Shortall asked whether the review of critical Justice Department emails had been received and when it would be published. The Minister said the report was nearly complete and would be with him within days before he considered publication.
The independent review of the handling of critical emails in the Department of Justice and Equality, which related to the disclosures tribunal, was carried out by senior counsel, Michael Collins. It was due to be submitted to the Minister by last Friday. Will he confirm if the review has been received and when he intends to publish it?
