A separate list of persons fined for failing to lodge income tax returns for the same period - July 1st to September 30th - lists 170 cases and fines totalling £160,650.

The cases listed include Mr Michael Bailey, of Kilamonan House, The Ward, Co Dublin, and Mr John Reynolds, of Milltown Road, Dublin 6.

Mr Bailey is a director of Bovale Developments Ltd, one of the companies linked to the matters being investigated by the Flood planning tribunal.

A spokesman for Mr Bailey said the fine was linked to a failure to lodge returns which had been settled by the time it got to court.
