Dunlop made £10,000 rezoning deal but did ‘virtually nothing’

FRANK DUNLOP made a £10,000 deal for his help with a land rezoning but made the landowners do all the work.

The former Government press officer and lobbyist told the Flood Tribunal he did “virtually nothing” for the three neighbours who jointly owned 22 acres at Carrickmines in south County Dublin.

He said all he did was send them a list of the names of Dublin County Council members and tell them to phone, visit or write to all of them to try to persuade them to support a rezoning motion.
