Plenty of evidence to warrant new public Stardust probe, says solicitor

A solicitor for families of the Stardust victims has rejected Government statements that there is no evidence to warrant the opening of a fresh public probe into the cause of the fatal fire.

Paul O’Sullivan said there was both new evidence and overlooked evidence from the original tribunal that made a compelling case for a new commission of investigation.

“There is plenty of evidence and there has been since the tribunal but it disappeared, it got mixed up, it was disregarded,” he said.
