John Brady (Wicklow, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
Last month, I gave the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government, Deputy Eoghan Murphy, a number of sworn affidavits containing serious allegations about planning irregularities in County Wicklow. The Tánaiste would be familiar with the content of some of them because they were on his desk when he was the Minister with responsibility for this area in 2016 and 2017. I have not received a response since those sworn affidavits were handed over to the Minister. Subsequently, the Garda, which was also furnished copies of those affidavits, has opened up a criminal investigation into the allegations. These are legacy issues. They have been on the Tánaiste's desk and on the desks of previous Ministers. The Government is completely deaf to these allegations. What will it do about this? Will it lift the cloud hanging over the names of some good people-----
