An article in the edition of December 13th last made reference to an investigation by the standards in Public Office Commission concerning alleged contraventions by Cllr Oisín Quinn.

The complainants did not argue that Mr Quinn “should not have voted on matters relating to the development plan” but that he should not have voted on the very limited range of matters that changed height standards in certain limited areas of the city. They claimed voting on these matters might tend to enhance the value of his interest in a specific building.
