Full text of a statement issued on behalf on Senator Ivor Callely:
Senator Callely has expressed his satisfaction with the High Court decision which clearly vindicates his position.
Senator Callely, his wife and family have suffered greatly from having been placed in the glare of media publicity with attendant adverse, unfair and defamatory comments from some sections of the media.
Senator Callely will now be reviewing his legal decisions going forward with his legal advisers and, on their advice, will not be making any further comment at this time.
Senator Callely, on behalf of himself, his wife and family, wishes to express his heartfelt thanks to his many friends and supporters who have given him tremendous support and encouragement at a time when he was under sustained attack.
Senator Callely also takes this opportunity to thank his legal advisers.
