I will not outstay my welcome on the issue. I was trying to give some idea of it and I will not go any further except to state that there were financial implications attached to a situation where the college president questioned why the list of employed staff differed from the list of actual staff. This led to questions which in turn led to total intimidation, abuse and bullying which has ultimately led to a star of the Irish primary education system feeling the need to resign her position as college president. Much needs to be discussed here and I want the opportunity to do so. The events that are taking place are outrageous and the Department of Education and Science cannot wash its hands of it. It is more than it can tolerate.
