18:22 The Taoiseach has told the Mahon tribunal he "totally" rejected the suggestion from two friends in the early 1990s that they would hold a fundraising function to help him meet legal bills associated with his marital separation. Mr Ahern said he accepted the £22,500 collected for him by friend and solicitor the late Gerry Brennan and Des Richardson, only on the basis that he would pay it back. "I didn't want to accept it," he told the tribunal shortly before it adjourned for the Christmas break. No date was given for when it would sit in the New Year.
