Martin: FF has no regrets about Lowry support

FIANNA FÁIL does not have any regrets about relying on the support of Michael Lowry in the last Dáil despite now calling on him to resign as an independent TD.

Opposition leader Micheál Martin said Mr Lowry should “consider his position” following the “damning” revelations in the Moriarty Tribunal Report. It found that the former communications minister passed on sensitive information to businessman Denis O’Brien during a competition process to operate a mobile phone licence in 1995.

Mr Martin said he will outline in a Dáil debate on the Moriarty Tribunal what Mr Lowry should do in light of the findings.
