Tax charge against TD adjourned
Michael Collins, who lost the Fianna Fáil whip after charges emerged, is not seeking re-election.
At Limerick Circuit Court yesterday, counsel for the DPP consented to an adjournment of a charge, relating to a tax offence, until July 24. The defence counsel, seeking an adjournment, made a reference to the “particular stage of the electoral cycle” in the country.
