    The general setup used is not unique to the NTA, though it may have variations specific to them. It is standard operating practice across the Public Sector. You will have a skeleton of core staff permanently employed by the Public body or government department with delivery capability and resourcing supplemented by contracting entities.

    The objective is not just resourcing flexibility, but also a delineation and obfuscation of responsibility. Even if that is not overtly stated.

    The NTA were recently recruiting for a direct staff member for RTPI signage. Due to being an public sector Engineer pay scale you needed to have a craft cert as a mechanic, electrician or aviation mechanic as well as an IT BSc plus substantial experience

    As a result the money was appalling - you'd not do that job if you were qualified as a sparks or a mechanic; and the pay was just about ok for the required IT side.

    Using a contractor gets around that requirement

    The BÉ website has normal Monday timetable bus times, rather than Sunday times for today's public holiday. How is this still happening in June 2025?
