    See how much money can be raised by the liquidator and then we'll see.

    Well the upside is that hopefully now Independent News & Media will stop trying to convince the country that Johnny Ronan is some kind of benevolent business genius.

    Maybe prices will drop at the National Convention Centre now that TH are out of the way. I'd reckon the OPW will do a better job.

    How much were TH being paid to run it? Anyone know?

    Three replies to an hours-old thread concerning a corrupt private sector business and its cost to the taxpayer.

    If this thread was about Croke Park or something similar there would be huindreds of baying replies generalising,inventing figures and calling for the salaries of everybody concerned to be slashed.

    Typical.

    Since the place is/was losing money on every delegate, one can only assume that however much it was, it was excessive...

    If the govt is going running it I wouldn't expect that to change

    So now Johnny Ronan has this in the pipeline:

    http://www.irishtimes.com/news/environment/dublin-s-tallest-building-planned-by-johnny-ronan-1.3069078

    Would anyone happen to know if the DOCE ever adjudicated on previous activities? Or does it matter at all in Ireland?
