NI Police Ombudsman under fire
Northern Ireland‘s Police Ombudsman was today labelled a waste of money after an Ulster Unionist peer claimed the office had secured only four successful convictions over the past four years.
In an attack on Nuala O‘Loan‘s investigative team, Lord Maginnis of Drumglass demanded an inquiry into how her office operated after a response to a Parliamentary Question revealed the office received £26.5m (€38m) between 2001 and 2005.
