Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said that his office did not seek an apology from Fr Peter McVerry when it contacted him about claims he made about the eviction ban.
The homelessness campaigner apologised to the Taoiseach on Wednesday for suggesting that Mr Varadkar had “overruled” Housing Minister Darragh O’Brien’s wish to continue the eviction ban.
In an interview with Red FM, Fr McVerry acknowledged that he may have been given incorrect information and that he wished to clarify his remarks.
