Ahern: Govt must examiner ruling on garda probe

Taoiseach Bertie Ahern tonight said detailed Government consideration would have to be given to a High Court judgment that could outlaw parliamentary investigations of complaints against the Gardai and other issues.

He made the comment after 36 members of the Garda Siochana today won a courtroom challenge against an Oireachtas Sub-Committee Inquiry into the controversial shooting of a man by members of their emergency response unit last year.
