If Cookson got the job because he was the best candidate with the right skill set, it should be quite straightforward for him to get a job elsewhere in a related field. However, if they can demonstrate there is no conflict of interest (which should also be straightforward) then I don't think he should be hounded out of his job.
As to why Kimmage is asking questions now, perhaps it only recently came to his attention?
I can see both sides of the argument and on balance I think it is legitimate, but I also think it is reasonable to ask questions.
