A separate investigation into potential conflicts of interest of a staff member at An Bord Pleanála has taken place, the Irish Examiner can reveal. 

The investigation was entirely unconnected to the conflict-of-interest allegations made against former deputy chairman of the board, Paul Hyde, and is instead focused on a staff member as opposed to a member of the board.
