Moriarty Tribunal resumes today

AFTER a five-month break, the Moriarty Tribunal resumes in Dublin Castle today.

Chairman Mr Justice Michael Moriarty will set out when he believes the enquiry will finish hearing evidence into payments to former Taoiseach Charles J Haughey and former Communications Minister Michael Lowry.

Established in September 1997, the tribunal had sat for 286 days before adjourning on April 2.
