Haughey estate is denied €2.5m in legal fees

The estate of the late Taoiseach lodged a claim last year seeking €3.92m in legal costs arising from the long-running tribunal.
The claim was lodged in April 2013 on behalf of Mr Haughey’s estate and new figures show that the estate has now received €1.36m from the State in tribunal third-party costs, or 35% of what was claimed.
