Anger at €5,900 jet bill for Dáil vote
The Irish Examiner revealed yesterday how the Government frantically dispatched the jet to collect Trade Minister Billy Kelleher from London when it feared it did not have enough votes to approve the reshuffle.
The two-hour round trip cost an estimated €5,900 – a bill that will have to be met by the taxpayer, making Mr Kelleher’s vote an unusually expensive one.
