Newspaper group founder subject of court orders
The orders were made yesterday by Mr Justice Daniel O’Keeffe against John Sheils, who set up Voice Provincial Newspapers in 2006, after finding he had not acted in a responsible manner in his role as a director.
The firm, with a registered address in Co Kilkenny, employed 31 people and published 10 regional titles. It ceased publication in December 2008 and went into liquidation in February 2009 as a result of a slump in advertising revenues.
