After the scandals, Olympic ticket inquiry has work cut out

A fortnight on from the first ripples of the multimillion-euro Irish Olympics ticket touting claims, two Irishmen are in a Brazilian jail, international arrest warrants are out for a billionaire football club owner, and a Government inquiry has been launched, writes Fiachra Ó Cionnaith

However, it is only now that the real work begins.

With a necessarily “limited” non-statutory inquiry due to ongoing legal issues in Brazil, the Cabinet and Attorney General Máire Whelan will this weekend attempt to work out the terms of reference for the 12-week investigation.
