Fergus Healy gave evidence at Charleton tribunal

Fergus Healy gave evidence at the Charleton tribunal on 19 January 2018 about information concerning Maurice McCabe.

He said he trusted senior officers to provide accurate information during consultations with the commissioner’s legal team.

Healy organised consultations before the O’Higgins Commission began hearings and believed a later letter was factually correct.

The tribunal chairman said one paragraph in that letter was “farcical” and did not make sense.

Healy was due to complete his evidence, while Noirin O’Sullivan was scheduled to give evidence next.
