"readied up" in Irish Times

[Dan Goodman]

A few days ago, in an article on a trial, the Irish Times quoted an
anonymous source as saying that the case had been "readied up".  Would
this actually have been "redded up"?

Note:  The Irish Times often refers to the Republic of Ireland as "the
State".  I suspect this is left over from when it was the Irish Free
State.
