Mr Downey, a well-known local author and journalist, has lost an industrial tribunal case in which he claimed he had been unfairly dismissed.

The Culture Company had accused Mr. Downey of gross misconduct regarding the release of a letter sent by the Chief Executive of Derry City Council, Sharon O’Connor, to the Culture Company.
Mr Downey’s solicitor, Des Doherty, said they were in the process of studying the tribunal’s judgement and were “considering an appeal.”
