Hearing Or Decision

Summary

The ODCE has asked the High Court to decide whether documents supplied by the FAI contain privileged legal material. The application, filed under the 2014 Companies Act, is part of a probe into certain matters concerning the association. The FAI, represented by Shane Murphy SC, requested an adjournment to prepare a sworn statement in response to the ODCE's claim of privilege over a limited number of documents. Justice Leonie Reynolds granted the adjournment and gave the FAI 24 hours to serve the affidavit. The case will be heard again on Thursday, with the ODCE seeking a legally qualified person to examine the material and produce a report for the court. The FAI had already supplied the requested documents, including minutes of board meetings from 1 January 2016 to 21 March 2019.
