There is a happy ending to the delayed Lotto payout: The winner of the €8.2m March jackpot can collect their prize — with interest.

Solicitor Tony McLynn, who acts on behalf of the anonymous winner, said the principal sum, plus interest, would be paid out.

“My client is happy with the outcome and will, in due course, at an appropriate and convenient time for all, collect the money,” said the Athlone-based solicitor.
