Quinn urges probe of Charlie’s reign
Labour’s Ruairí Quinn, who was minister for finance from 1994 to 1997, said aspects of Mr McCreevy’s term in that office should be investigated as part of an independent review into the Department of Finance announced this week.
He said Mr McCreevy “knew everything” and “rode over” decisions by his officials, particularly in relation to the granting of €14 million for an equestrian events centre at Punchestown Racecourse in his constituency.
