Gilmartin tells of two meetings with MacSharry

BUSINESSMAN Tom Gilmartin yesterday insisted he met the former Fianna Fáil Minister for Finance Ray MacSharry in his offices in December 1987.

Opening his evidence as main witness in the module on the Quarryvale (Liffey Valley) and Bachelors Walk developments, Mr Gilmartin told the tribunal he met Mr MacSharry twice in 1987.

Tribunal lawyer John Gallagher SC said Mr MacSharry had told the legal team he did not recall meeting Mr Gilmartin regarding the developments.
