No worries. The Ditch will expose all the dirty dealings.
Aren’t they supposed to declare all the properties anyways?
There is no mandatory public asset declaration when you get any gov position etc.???
Self, serving, serves themselves.
Shocked Pikachu face
Sounds like they have nothing to hide, oh wait…..
>government rejects proposal to investigate itself
shocked!
So that’s a yes then?
OF course! I mean the stupid public lets them get away with everything because they keep getting voted bacjk in. So why change?
How odd.
Follow the money
Should be all TDs.
Bit like when the Garda kicked up a big fuss that they were going to be drug tested. The rules and laws should apply to everyone.
Okay, there needs to be a fully independent group for deciding how open public servants need to be.
I read recently that US presidents are “meant” to immediately be put under audit by the IRS. The filings are “usually” made public afterwards.
I believe something similar should apply for all ministers at least, and TDs if we really wanted to keep them honest when voting and proposing legislation.
I’ll just assume they’re all at it and are comfortable to play the odds they as an individual won’t be the next one caught out.
Folks who did dodgy shit definitely don’t want you to know about more dodgy shit they did. lol
It’s like they want Sinn Fein to win the next election.
I mean at this point I don’t think it should be 10% audit sample, but 100%, as a minimum act of public service to restore some modicum of public confidence in the farcical establishment that continually shows it a) is unable to fix the housing crisis and b) doesn’t give two shits about what normal people have to deal with because they can do whatever they want
I’d say The Ditch are conducting an audit as we speak 😃
I think they were right. It’s a diversion to create outrage and waste time. Note: I’m not a landlord and I fucking hate people who make money speculating on property; if I had my way the CGT on selling land would be 95% and the tax on unused property or undeveloped zoned land would be punitive.
Why stop at ministers, why not all TDs? Throw in councillors too
“Politicians do that on an ongoing basis.”
hence why the ditch need to remind them on a regular basis they didn’t do it themselves…
