Maybe the Gardai and justice system could intervene then?

BUT IT’S IN YOUR FUCKING NAME!!!
Seriously, is anyone ever going to take responsibility for anything in this country? Everyone here do themselves a favour and either take to the polls or take to the streets. There’s no other way we’ll have even the faintest hope of change otherwise.

It was a hell of a catch, that catch 22

The gravy does be over flowing so much that it creates a slick mess that’s hard to work in.
If they won’t do their job then they essentially are redundant and should be cut.

Department of health to contact all citizens and send knives and sewing kit to each household.
We don’t do health anymore. Sort yourselves out!
How hard can it be spokesman says!

After reading the article I realised that if you bring up this lack of followup with the Ombudsman he will hand your request straight to the department.
Well, that seems perfectly sensible. No abuse possible at all. XD

Jesus, this is inflammatory and it’s very sneaky reporting from the Journal. From what I can see it was Office for Protected Disclosures (OPDC) that is saying that they were told this. Technically that’s hearsay
>“We did not accept, however, that the reports fell outside their remit,” **the OPDC said**. “The Department’s concern is that it is not the role of the Minister or the Department to intervene with local government.”
So it’s an out of context comment that was NOT made directly by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage.
It seems like an article that was purpose built to generate outrage. Typical Irish reporting these days.

> This is despite the department having overall sectoral responsibility for local authorities.
Imagine if the government actually tried to do its job.
