Ms Emer McCarthy, a colleague of Mr McQuaid in the IT department of the ESB, said: "We are asking people to please look back through their memories of that night. If you were at the Trinity Ball or if you were in town that night, did you see anything at all unusual? You may feel it is not important, but it could be a crucial fact.

"Paul may have walked home to Fairview via North Strand, so we are asking anyone in the city centre or on the way to Fairview who has information to get in touch."

Mr McQuaid is 5 10["] tall, of slim build, with short dark hair and blue eyes. He has a Northern accent and was wearing a navy blue bomber jacket, navy T-shirt and dark jeans. Clontarf Garda station is handling the investigation.
