    With Bertie spending €30,000-50,000 a year on make-up, wouldn't you think they'd spend say €2,000 to get a professional photographer (and make-up artist ;)) in for a day to do individual and group pics?

    Or maybe a dietician/personal trainer. Seriously €30,000-50,000 it would be much more of an idea to spend it on something less superficial.

    Current Ministers they are. Current photographs they are not.

    I guess we now know that there is such a thing as a public sector photographer.

    If they did all get them re-done (which they should) some little indymedia twit or other would have a conniption and lash into them for the 'extravagant wastage of public funds ZOMFG ! ! ' or some such nonsense.

    Or they could comment on how grey Bertie has got in the last 15 years, since that photo was taken.
