A 140 page transcript released by the Judicial Council a day after the publication of the Denham Review details a question and answer session between Supreme Court judge Seamus Woulfe and the former Chief Justice Susan Denham.
It offers a rare insight into an unprecedented procedure set in train earlier this year after the controversy surrounding the attendance of Mr Justice Woulfe at the "golfgate" dinner.
The lengthy exchanges outline how Seamus Woulfe and his legal representative robustly defended his decision to attend the Oireachtas Golf Society event in Clifden, Galway, the events that led to his apology and his view, in hindsight, of the entire controversy.
