Port board confirms inquiry established
A special group has been set up, headed by a retired senior civil servant, with the brief to report within one week on whether the allegations warrant further scrutiny.
The Minister for Transport Martin Cullen confirmed that an internal investigative committee has been appointed at the SFPC to deal with matters which the minister would not specify. The company has responsibility for shipping in the Shannon Estuary including the ports at Foynes and Limerick.
