I’m cleared completely of wrongdoing, says Cullen

TRANSPORT Minister Martin Cullen last night said yesterday’s report into the hiring of Monica Leech had cleared him completely of any wrongdoing.

In a statement yesterday, Mr Cullen also criticised the way in which he said the allegations against him were exaggerated.

“Throughout this controversy there has been a consistent pattern of exaggeration and distortion. Each of the claims made is comprehensively rebutted by the facts as now published,” he said.
