Good morning colleagues,

A few media outlets maintained a running commentary as the boardroom scrap at the DAA intensified in recent days. Chief executive Kenny Jacobs is reported to receive a settlement in the region of €1 million under proposals that would see him leave the role. 

Meanwhile, the Irish Times front page today includes a report that violent threats against Tánaiste Simon Harris and his family "are being treated as a “national security” issue by gardaí, who are employing anti-terrorism legislation to catch the perpetrators."
