Attempt to ‘silence’ ODCE, Dáil told

Attempts have been made to “silence” the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement (ODCE), it has been claimed in the Dáil.

The Taoiseach is now examining legislation to protect sources in the wake of the Independent News and Media (INM) alleged data breach.

Leo Varadkar told the Dáil that given “recent revelations” his Government will have to consider legislation in this area to protect sources.
