Maurice McCabe tribunal to also include other gardaí’s claims

The tribunal of inquiry into the alleged smear campaign against Maurice McCabe will also include the treatment of other whistleblowers.

The Dáil and Seanad yesterday approved the terms of reference for the tribunal, under the chairmanship of Judge Peter Charleton, and will operate a number of modules.

The first module will cover the McCabe scandal and it is hoped the tribunal will complete its work within nine months.
