Dunlop denies protecting senior politicians

FORMER lobbyist Frank Dunlop has denied he’s protecting senior politicians and that he has evidence of corruption in tax designation schemes.

David Burke SC, yesterday accused Mr Dunlop of being happy to sacrifice small fry councillors only to protect large fish.

Mr Burke, who is representing the estate of the late Fine Gael councillor Tony Hand, made the accusation at the Mahon Tribunal.
