The wage bill will have fallen from €17.5bn at the peak in 2009 to €13.7bn – a €3.8bn saving. The public service gets a bad rap from people in this country. But credit should be afforded where its due. The current staff are doing more work for less pay.

Should the public service get more recognition for their efforts?]]>
