Two more Fianna Fáil members criticised in the damning Mahon Tribunal report resigned from the party yesterday ahead of a motion to expel them later this week.

The tribunal commended current minister and Labour TD Pat Rabbitte for giving back a £2,000 donation he received from lobbyist Frank Dunlop in 1992.

PLANS for housing on land that two businessmen wanted rezoned were drawn up by an architect at the request of politician GV Wright, the planning tribunal heard yesterday.

FRANK Dunlop claims he paid Fianna Fáil TD GV Wright £2,000 to help rezone agricultural land which later sold for millions.
