Cathal Dervan has left his role as the FAI's public relations and communications director, just 10 weeks after an “agreement in principle” had been reached over his employment grievances.

Mr Dervan elevated his complaint to the Workplace Relations Commission under two pieces of legislation, primarily surrounding an alleged alteration of his duties without his contest under the Terms of Employment (Information) Act 1994.
