The former Assistant Dublin County Manager told Criminal Assets Bureau officers he kept the payments secret from his wife, Maureen, a tax officer, and opened an offshore account in the Isle of Man in 1986 and did not file tax returns on the money he received from these sources and did not avail of any of the tax amnesties offered by the Revenue Commissioners.
