‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Public Service Embargo. Source of Revenue savings
Summary
O’Kennedy asked whether planned savings would involve staff cuts and obstruct tax collection. Dukes said they would come from postal and telecommunications costs, not staff reductions.
He knows how to manage money, and to make it. The Minister is not a man of action like Deputy Reynolds in matters of making and managing money. The Minister did not indicate in relation to the proposed savings in the Office of the Revenue Commissioners how he proposes to implement the savings: is it through staff cuts or from the current budget? Does he expect there will be a further obstruction of the collection of outstanding tax?
