From today's DT:

"MICHAEL FOLEY, chief executive of Aer Lingus, was yesterday sacked from the Irish airline after sexual harassment allegations were made against him.

Mr Foley was effectively suspended from the state-backed airline a month ago after boardroom sub-committees studied allegations made by two female employees earlier this year. He has maintained that he is innocent throughout the controversy.

He is expected to receive 18 months salary, worth around IR£300,000. A spokesman said yesterday: "The committee of the board, having concluded that Mr Foley's position as chief executive is untenable, has decided to terminate his employment with immediate effect in accordance with his contract."

Two weeks ago, Mr Foley failed in his High Court bid to prevent the company disciplining him over the claims."
