Brian Lenihan Jnr (Dublin West, Fianna Fail)

Questions have been raised, not in this House but elsewhere, that the earlier hearing before the High Court on the application for the injunction was in some way compromised or prejudiced by the existence of this statement in the affidavit. In fact, this had no bearing on the matter. Due to the fact that Deputy O'Dea disavowed the allegation, there was no need to give an injunction.
