What if this was a private business and that was done? The State is a soft touch for everyone that comes along seeking payment because it is taxpayers' money. No-one seems to mind. If Ms McPhillips does not mind me saying this, no-one seems to be concerned with taxpayers' money and no-one is responsible for it. If I was running a private company there is no way I would let this happen, because I could not afford it. How did the Department arrive at the figure of €1.8 million? I want to know this.
