John L. Thornton told The Globe and Mail that “Acacia never paid a dime of income tax” to the Tanzanian government. In May 2017, the government of Tanzania accused Acacia Mining of “underreporting its gold exports by a factor of ten”. The investigation revealed that Acacia declared the presence of gold, copper and silver in its mineral sand exports, but did not declare other precious metals.

Many of the city's leading merchants were involved in smuggling at this time, illicitly exporting goods like foodstuffs and leather, while under- declaring imports of wine.Jones, Evan T., 'Illicit business: accounting for smuggling in mid-sixteenth century Bristol' , Economic History Review, 54 (2001).

O'Donnell was one of three politicians secretly filmed for Standards in Public Office, which aired on RTÉ One straight after the Nine O'Clock News on 8 December 2015. For the purposes of its programme, RTÉ established an imaginary company it named Vinst Opportunities, with imaginary investors searching for ways to set up wind farms without having to deal with any problems that might arise if the imaginary company and its imaginary investors sought planning permission. Discovering that – five times over the previous four years – companies belonging to him had come to the attention of Revenue for their use of unmarked diesel and under-declaring of income, RTÉ contacted O'Donnell and claimed he "did not hesitate when asked to meet with the company". O'Donnell met with the imaginary representative of the imaginary company, who secretly filmed him offering to find either an established wind farm or land that could be bought, and that he would assist in lobbying his fellow members of Donegal County Council to support wind farms, which RTÉ described as "extremely controversial in many rural areas".
