Michael Lowry says he is 'fully confident' he has no liability as file sent to DPP over Moriarty Tribunal findings

Mr. Lowry expressed his surprise upon learning from newspaper reports that a file had been sent by An Garda Síochána to the DPP concerning findings of the Moriarty Tribunal.

He emphasized that his earlier engagement with Gardaí was voluntary and cooperative, stating, 'At no point was it suggested that there were or are any charges being contemplated against me.'

Furthermore, he insisted there was no wrongdoing regarding the GSM licence, asserting that it was awarded through 'a fully fair process' involving experienced members of the civil service.

Mr. Lowry also noted that the State had consistently defended the licence award against speculative civil cases from two unsuccessful applicants over the years.
