Ex-director of Hep C group, Positive Action, faces sentence

A former director of the hepatitis C support group Positive Action is due in court today for sentencing in connection with alleged theft and fraud from the organisation.

Bernadette Warnock, aged 62, of Smithstown Lodge, Garretstown, Dunshaughlin, Co Meath, appeared before Dublin District Court last May charged with 28 counts connected to fraudulent cheques and 48 charges of theft on dates between 2009 and 2011.

Ms Warnock resigned as a director of the Positive Action board in July 2013.
