Department of Finance reprimanded by information watchdog for failing to follow guidelines
Social Democrats TD Catherine Murphy, who has pursued answers about the winding-up of the former Anglo bank, said the commissioner’s decision proved she had been thwarted in trying to get information.
Information Commissioner Peter Tyndall, in reviewing Ms Murphy’s attempts to get answers, concluded that the department had acted “most unsatisfactory” and was “clearly incorrect” in following guidelines for Freedom of Information requests by the Kildare North TD.
