Carmody to pay Medicines Board €500 a month

Former GP Paschal Carmody is to pay €500 a month to the Irish Medicines Board in connection with a court order for payment of €10,000 arising from a trial in 2005.

He was unable to pay the order for €10,000 “in one installation”, Tralee District Court heard yesterday.

The payment of €10,000 was ordered in 2005 and Mr Carmody’s solicitor was asking the Medicines Board to accept payment of €1,000 within seven days and €500 a month afterwards.
