Dillon said no infraction notices would be issued to players under the AFL Anti-Doping Code "at the present time".
Fahey said the AFL had acted under its own code of conduct and the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority's investigation was a separate matter.
"I have no issue with what the AFL has said," Fahey told AFL.com.au on Tuesday night.
"They indicate there's no infraction notices to be issued against Essendon players on the basis of the information available at the present time.
"Therefore this is a matter for the AFL under their code of conduct.
"They have made their decisions and it is up to them from this point on. What happens with ASADA is a matter for ASADA."
