Kenny silent on lack of support after Fennelly probe

Taoiseach Enda Kenny has refused to comment on a poll which found just one in 10 people believe his version of why former Garda commissioner Martin Callinan retired.

In his first press conference since the publication of the Fennelly report, Mr Kenny declined to comment on the damning verdict of the public.

Last week, the long-awaited interim report of the Fennelly commission found that Mr Callinan’s decision to retire on March 25, 2014, was ultimately his own and “he could have decided otherwise”.
