'Monstrosity' my private view: Ahern
The Taoiseach Mr Ahern has told An Bord Pleanala he was speaking in a personal capacity when he described the proposal for a multi-storey conference centre in Dublin's dockland as 'a monstrosity' and were not inteneded to 'colour' or influence its inquiry. A letter from the Taoiseach to the planning authority written two weeks ago, was released for publication.
