Today's Sunday Times The Shannon Foynes Port Company.

Chief Executive with an entitlement complex? Check.
Procurement and tendering 'irregularities'?. Check.
More dirty property deals than you can shake a stick at? Check.
Fianna Fail connections? Check.
Generous severance package? Check.

There almost seems to be a template.
 
Re: Another quango, another scandal.

read that all right yesterday, 2 million spent on legal fees to get rid of him. His external business partner and co-board member asking the board to find ways to make up the shortfall in his salary (compared to equivilent role in Dun Laoghair Port) so they 'rent' his boat for 50k a year. if it wasnt so serious it would be funny.
 
do you think there is any chance he will be forced to repay anything.... I thought not.

This recession may teach us quite a few things about ourselves and maybe just maybe the youth coming though might just might see the need for some morals and integrity. Somehow I doubt it.

noah
