Callely’s bail terms altered to allow visit to Scotland

Former politician Ivor Callely is to be allowed travel to Scotland after the High Court yesterday varied the terms of his bail.

High Court President Mr Justice Nicholas Kearns altered the terms of the former senator’s bail to let him temporarily leave the jurisdiction.

The court heard Mr Callely, who was jailed for five months in July after admitting he fraudulently claimed €4,207.45 in expenses from the Oireachtas, wants to go to Scotland over Christmas.
