The golf club in Templemore was also open to the public. I presume that, like any golf club, a significant amount of money was raised through membership fees, green fees and so on. A golf club can realise a significant amount of money in a year. The golf club had charity status but its moneys were moved into the restaurant account. To me, that seems to be a way of hiding money and not paying tax on it. Did the golf club have charity status?
