As you know, Katherine Zappone will not be taking up her role as the Government’s Special Envoy on Freedom of Opinion and Expression. This is due to the controversy over her appointment and of course the party in the Merrion Hotel. Is this the end of the debacle now or are there more questions to be answered?
