S.I.P.O says there was no prima facie evidence to support any suggestion that there was a conflict of interest relating to the deputies public statements.

Longford Westmeath Deputy Robert Troy has welcomed the results of a SIPO investigation into issues surrounding his failure to declare all his property and business interests on the Dáil register.

The Standards in Public Office today announced that there was no prima facie evidence to support any suggestion that there was a conflict of interest relating to the deputies public statements regarding Rental Accommodation Scheme funding during his time as a minister.

Deputy Troy amended the register and resigned from his position as Minister of State in 2022 following the issues coming to light.
