Port probe ‘bogged down’

THE investigation at Shannon Foynes Port company has ground to a halt because the man who has made verbal allegations against company personnel has refused to cooperate, it was reliably learned last night.

It is believed this person is demanding the replacement of the special committee set up to investigate his claims.

One source said: “The whole thing has got bogged down due to demands now being made by the person who made unwritten, unsubstantiated verbal allegations.”
