Rehab staff: Clean slate should have been offered

Staff at the disability charity Rehab said they are disappointed that a "clean slate wasn’t offered" after a shake up of the board which saw all but three of its 16 members replaced.

Some 13 board members were announced at its AGM yesterday, following a series of controversies surrounding pay and governance.

The new members are drawn from the charity, public, and private sectors and will receive no remuneration for their work, although they can claim vouched expenses.
