A preliminary Garda inquiry into the leaking of a confidential document by Tánaiste Leo Varadkar has been upgraded to a formal investigation.
The investigation relates to allegations that, Mr Varadkar, who was then taoiseach, improperly leaked a confidential copy of a proposed new General Practitioner (GP) contract to a friend, Dr Maitiú Ó Tuathail in April 2019
The contract contained details of the deal the government had provisionally agreed with the Irish Medical Organisation. At the time, Dr Ó Tuathail was president of the National Association of GPs, a rival organisation representing GPs that is now defunct.
