Former Rehab CEO took case over her treatment before Dáil Public Accounts Committee
A seven judge Supreme Court will give judgment on Wednesday on an appeal by former Rehab CEO Angela Kerins concerning her treatment before the Dáil Public Accounts Committee.
The appeal raises important issues concerning the constitutional separation of powers and the courts’ ability to intervene in proceedings of Oireachtas Committees. Ms Kerins went to the Supreme Court after the High Court rejected her challenge over her treatment at two Dáil Public Accounts Committee hearings into payments to Rehab.
The PAC’s appeal against the High Court’s decision directing it to pay Ms Kerins’ estimated €700,000 costs of the case there, plus the State’s appeal over an order requiring it to pay its own costs, will be dealt with after the Supreme Court has given judgment.
