They want to know how thorough are the checks on past employment, they are filling in a gap or two with adding a couple of months to employment that was finished. For example, they worked in office A for a year, started in office B 3 months later, they've adjusted A to say they worked right up to when they started in B. Does anyone know about the checks they'll do for the civil service?

Maybe next week. He also spared the Department of Social Protection from his comments. Is that because they are in the frontline or could it be that they have a large national office (Pensions) in his constituency? Anyway I'm sure his opinion is well considered. Sur wasn't his Daddy a TD before him. Time for my foot massage. Get your application in quick.

He made some good points about those lazy public servants and the loss of productivity. I mean the productivity of a T.D has been near zero for most of the year. Oh well.
