‘Nothing wrong’ with family link according to Rehab boss Kerins

Rehab’s chief executive has insisted there is nothing untoward about the involvement of close family members in a coffin importation firm which was directly linked to the charity.

The issue, which was raised during the Dáil Public Accounts Committee grilling yesterday, relates to Complete Eco Solutions.

The firm’s three founding directors and shareholders are Angela Kerins’s brother, Joseph McCarthy; husband, Sean Kerins; and her predecessor as Rehab chief executive, the long-time Fine Gael senior adviser Frank Flannery.
