Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach
Remuneration of Senior Civil Servants: Discussion
Mr. Martin Fraser:
I am quite capable of being impartial. I was in a personnel role for a long time as well. Regardless of whether we know them, we give bad news to most of the people we interview. It is not really a wonderful job. Some 80% of candidates do not get the job. It is not as if being on the TLAC is wonderful or I can help people I know. Unfortunately, that is not the way.
