NFLD: $2.2M improperly spent by NL politicians - Sunday, September 16, 2007
The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary has charged former Conservative cabinet minister Ed Byrne, ex-NDP member Randy Collins and former Liberal cabinet ministers Wally Andersen and Jim Walsh with fraud.
A former bureaucrat, Bill Murray, the legislature's former director of financial operations, has also been charged.
The fifth politician, Liberal member Percy Barrett, was never charged. The RNC said last month that there was "insufficient grounds" to charge him. |
