The NUJ has not got up at all. It has said plenty. Mr. Dooley is often on radio and I had more respect for him than I have today, because he is being smart. He has a responsibility to the yellow pack workers and the NUJ is not the only union in the public service that has allowed yellow pack workers to be introduced. It does cosy deals with Governments and Departments and to hell with the daoine beaga, the small people. I am asking him now what action he took to ensure that the gardaí investigated it. It is illegality on a large scale. It is disgusting. If I did it as an employer, I would be frozen by Revenue and in jail if I did not pay the money.

RTÉ told us it had €50 million in a contingency fund to deal with Revenue. That is illegal. No other employer gets that kind of preference. It is time there was a big shake up of the union side and the cabal that runs it. They are all part of the same cabal as far as I am concerned. What did the unions do about having those people prosecuted?
