The Attorney General’s position is untenable according to a former Minister for Justice.
Alan Shatter says the Fennelly report shows a substantial overreaction by AG Máire Whelan to reports of phone tapping by Gardaí.
He also says it vindicates his position and shows it was a mess up by Gardaí rather than a conspiracy.
Former Minister Alan Shatter says the report brings the future of the Attorney General into question.
