John Delaney lost his High Court application to keep proceedings over FAI documents private on 23 March 2021.

Ms Justice Leonie Reynolds ruled the case would remain public for the time being, while allowing the issue to be revisited later.

The proceedings concern about 280,000 files seized by the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement during an investigation into the FAI. Barristers Niall Nolan and Patrick Mair were appointed to review privilege claims, and the case was adjourned to a date in April.
