PAC engaged in a frolic, claims Kerins

PAC engaged in “a frolic” for which it had no mandate and no basis in law, John Rogers, counsel for Ms Kerins, contended yesterday. He said the PAC appeared to think its hearings were necessary as part of an inquiry into the affairs of the charity sector and the justification seemed based on a concept of accountability with Ms Kerins and others from Rehab treated as persons “accounting” to PAC. .
Some PAC members made comments demonstrating bias towards Ms Kerins, he argued.
