“And they all moved away from me on the bench
there, and the hairy eyeball and all kinds of mean nasty things…”
(Alice’s Restaurant by Arlo Guthrie)
INDEPENDENT TD Mick Wallace is facing censure by his Dáil colleagues and a possible criminal prosecution over his admitted under-declaration of VAT payments by his construction firm.
Fellow members of the Dáil technical group last night joined in the condemnation of his €2.1 million settlement with the Revenue Commissioners, while Fine Gael and Labour TDs called on him to consider his position.
Mr Wallace faces up to five years’ imprisonment if prosecuted and convicted over his under-declaration of VAT over a two-year period.
