The former editor of The Guardian looks set to continue on Ireland’s Future of Media Commission after receiving unanimous backing from its members.
Alan Rusbridger had faced calls to be removed from the role after revelations that his newspaper’s former media editor, Roy Greenslade, was supportive of the IRA.
Mairia Cahill, who has alleged she was sexually abused by an IRA man at the age of 16, had called on the Taoiseach to consider Mr Rusbridger’s position on the commission.
She said the work of the panel would be “tainted” after he received the backing of fellow members on Tuesday.
