Dunlop was ‘under siege’ for bribes
Mr Dunlop has told the inquiry that elected members of Dublin County Council actively sought cash in return for their support of rezoning motions: “The local elections were just around the corner. Without being dramatic about it, I was under siege for money from a wide range of politicians, mostly councillors I was dealing with on an almost daily basis.”
On his third day of evidence, Mr Dunlop described meetings with councillors he has admitted bribing in return for their votes on a controversial rezoning motion on lands in Carrickmines, Co Dublin, in 1992.
