Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

I have answered the question about the position regarding the former Tánaiste. The former Tánaiste knew that I was answering letters from the tribunal. She would not have seen those letters. She would only have been aware of broad facts about them. I believe she was aware that I got loans from friends. She was not aware of where I bought my house from. She was not aware of other issues, so there is no fault on the former Tánaiste or the present Tánaiste. I did not tell the present Tánaiste about Michael Wall — he did not want to know that either — from whom I bought my house.
