PUBLIC SECTOR FREEZE


We are delighted to hear that the government is going to put a freeze on state sector pay packets. ( And that includes firemen who are just public servants with cool trucks) About time and we also like the idea of tidying up the backroom that houses the machinery of government. Duplication and waste still abound. The idea of warehousing the myriad of 0800 numbers across the state sector is a smart one. and purchasing is another area that could be vastly improved.

We know that the general populace wants to see a leaner public service - it is still a fat and ponderous and often unfocused beast.
