"It is not a case I was making payments whenever I felt like it. I was doing so with whatever little income that I had to hand."

"with whatever little income that I had to hand"

Violet-Anne Wynne, a former independent Clare TD and mother of six, is repaying a residual debt of €6,500 to a former employee. The repayments have been funded from her limited personal income, described as "whatever little income" she had available. She emphasized that the payments were not made arbitrarily but were carried out as funds permitted. The matter was addressed at Ennis District Court, where the circumstances of the repayments and her financial constraints were recorded.
