Lawyers claim declaration of unlawful action against PAC towards Angela Kerins would have 'chilling' effect on parliamentary committees

A declaration by the Supreme Court that the Dáil Public Accounts Committee acted unlawfully towards former Rehab CEO Angela Kerins would have a “chilling” effect on the work of parliamentary committees, lawyers for the State and PAC have told the court.
The seven-judge court today reserved its final decision on Ms Kerins’ appeal over her treatment at two PAC hearings in February and April 2014.
