Presidential Election
Taoiseach says Jim Gavin told Fianna Fáil he had ‘absolutely’ no issue with tenants
Gavin's announcement came late last night, hours after he failed to clarify reports about rent he mistakenly received from a tenant over a decade ago.
"I made a mistake that was not in keeping with my character and the standards I set myself. I am now taking steps to address the matter," he said.
Taoiseach and Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin said: "I fully understand his decision and believe it is the correct one."
