This report is a localnews.ie summary based on public court reporting and records; sources are listed below.

Enda Farrell received a two-year wholly suspended sentence for disclosing confidential NAMA information on 12 May 2016. He had pleaded guilty to disclosing information confidential to NAMA by email between May and July 2012.

Judge Karen O'Connor cited his co-operation, previous good character, early guilty plea and financial difficulties as mitigating factors. She also noted his significant breach of trust and that the information was potentially of commercial benefit, but said a custodial sentence would have been imposed if Farrell had materially benefited or NAMA had been compromised.
