Paschal Donohue has apologised for failing to disclose work that was carried out for his campaign in the 2016 General Election.

The Minister for Public Expenditure has submitted an amended financial statement to the Standards in Public Office Commission.

It comes after a complaint against him was made to SIPO, alleging he failed to properly declare services provided to him seven years ago.

Upon review of his records, Minister Donohue says he discovered that he should have declared an additional 1,057 euro to his election statement.

Minister Donohue says he is taking a step back from all ministerial functions relating to SIPO, as it falls under his department's remit.
