    what a joke the HSE is! paying you sick pay will you work? children’s allowance for kids overage? makes my stomach turn. I know of a community welfare officer (who deals with rent allowance) rents a house out without reg with prtb or the tax man. of course I reported her ass to relevant authorities! just indicative of the system, rife with double standards and misuse of public funds??!! all this on top of the fact people dying on hospital beds, those responsible should be sacked straight away, no pussy around. I said it before you need someone from a business background to run the HSE, Michael smurfit or fergal Quinn

    Good news about DELL and 100 new jobs. It will only take 37 years to get the rest of ex DELL employees back to work.
