The findings of an inquiry into the leaking of a top secret Garda Siochana Ombudsman Ombudsman Commission (GSOC) report to the Sunday Times have been released.
The report, conducted by senior counsel Mark Connaughton, says it was unable to establish individual responsibility for any disclosure - either on the part of an employee of GSOC or any other party.
The Sunday Times article, published on February 9th, created serious tensions between GSOC and the government - particularly then-Justice Minister Alan Shatter.
It contained details from a report on a secret security sweep by British firm 'Verrimus', which was part of an investigation by GSOC into the suspected bugging of its offices.
A number of people were interviewed as part of the investigation, except the Sunday Times journalist who declined an invitation.
The actual inquiry will not be made public.
