No, I am right. The IBTS collected it for one purpose. It is bad enough to see the Government raiding moneys that were collected for road tax and sending them off to Irish Water. In this case, the IBTS collected a sum of money, which was intended to be given to the Government for a particular purpose under particular legislation, from its employees. Therefore, the IBTS is legally obliged to hand over that money. This has actually been tested in court. The IBTS lost the case and now the money is due to the Department. Does the IBTS have that money in a separate account?
