Kenny defends sending Commission of Investigation terms of reference to Shatter

The Taoiseach Enda Kenny is defending sending former Justice Minister Alan Shatter the terms of reference for a Commission of Investigation before they were made public in the Dáil.
It has emerged overnight that in letters, between the Government and Mr Shatter last year, the terms of reference were sent to Shatter a month before they were sent to the Dáil.
