Supreme Court Judge Seamus Woulfe’s attendance at the Oireachtas golf dinner is "not sufficient grounds" to warrant his resignation, a report into the event has concluded. Mr Woulfe, the former attorney general, was among more than 80 guests who attended the dinner on August 19 after two days of golf. In the course of her review, Ms Denham met Judge Woulfe, accompanied by Michael Collins SC, who he had retained as his legal counsel. A draft of the report was provided to Mr Justice Woulfe prior to Ms Denham finalising it. Ms Denham was asked to consider whether Mr Woulfe should have accepted the invitation to dinner.
