RTÉ to seek court permission to report Dáil claims
The fresh salvo in the legal row was confirmed by RTÉ last night in a bid to “report on the matter as comprehensively as possible, as early as possible”.
Ms Murphy made her comments in the Dáil on Thursday. Despite the remarks being made under Dáil privilege, which, under article 15.12 of the Constitution means they can be reported without the threat of legal action, Mr O’Brien’s lawyers believe the information is covered by an existing temporary injunction.
