Court says committee was acting outside remit but it needs further consideration of certain issues

Former Rehab CEO Angela Kerins has won her Supreme Court appeal concerning her treatment before the Dail Public Accounts Committee.

It found, in the circumstances of this case, it would not be a breach of the separation of powers for the court to declare the actions of the PAC unlawful in light of the fact the PAC was acting outside its terms of reference and that a relevant committee of the Houses of the Oireachtas, the Committee on Procedures and Privileges had come to that view.

Ms Kerins went to the Supreme Court after the High Court rejected her challenge over her treatment at two Dail Public Accounts Committee hearings in 2014 into payments to Rehab, where questions were asked about her €240,000 annual salary and other matters.
