Wife of Jim Kennedy appears at Flood Tribunal

There were heated exchanges at the Flood Tribunal this morning between Antoinette Kennedy and Justice Flood as she was questioned about the business dealings of her husband, Jim Kennedy.

Mr Kennedy allegedly gave money to Frank Dunlop to pass onto certain councillors.

Mrs Kennedy told the tribunal that her husband had paid £1.4m to the Revenue Commissioners in 1993 when, she said, millions meant millions.

She went on to say that her husband didn't even get a Christmas card from Revenue.
