Government 'absolutely committed' to resolving delay in IBRC inquiry

Taoiseach Enda Kenny has vowed to give a judge the powers he needs to investigate asset sales by the rebranded Anglo Irish Bank.

The commitment was given after Judge Brian Cregan warned in a letter to the Taoiseach last Friday he was “not in a position to proceed” with the audit of Irish Bank Resolution Corporation deals which involved a write-off.
