Celia holds her own in tribunal grilling
ON TAKING the witness stand, Celia Larkin explained how she was a volunteer in Bertie Ahern’s constituency office and worked in a number of departments where he was minister until she retired from the civil service in 1999. Based now in Killaloe, Co Clare, she runs a number of beauty salons. She agreed she had a very close professional, political and personal relationship with the Taoiseach over a number of years.
Ms Larkin was then asked by tribunal barrister Henry Murphy about information she provided to the tribunal in relation to money given by Manchester-based businessman Michael Wall to Mr Ahern in December 1994.
