Ahern: Move on from spying scandal

Political parties must move on from the Stormont spying controversy to focus on restoring devolved government to the North, Taoiseach Bertie Ahern said tonight.

In the aftermath of Sinn Féin’s head of administration at Stormont Denis Donaldson revealing he was a British spy, Mr Ahern said he believed it was best if people tried to return to concentrating on the peace process.
