My Department originally sought legal advice from the CSSO in relation to this case in June 2014. The overall circumstances of the case are very complicated and required the CSSO to consult with the Office of the Attorney General . Since June 2014 a significant body of work has been undertaken aimed at formulating an appropriate case strategy which has included establishing timelines, identifying appropriate legal entities, and establishing the implications of an existing Circuit Court Order.
