Ridiculous sense of entitlement must end

Like everything else in this country the people controlling the CRC were allowed free rein, their salaries tied to the runaway public service pay, without any monitoring or accountability by successive administrations.

Added into this toxic mix, the relationship many charities have with politicians and/or political parties, what can we expect? After all these people, with their sense of entitlement, probably think what’s good enough for their political masters is good enough for them, all feeding at the trough of public funds. No wonder the country is in a shambles.

There is a lot more of the same to come — and I think it will take the PAC some time to uncover some of the other unsavoury aspects of many organisations, well hidden over the years. Vulnerable people have been exploited — remember what Kieran Mulvey said last year about sheltered workshops, where people were on endless training receiving a minimum allowance and the money going who knows where — again no accountability, a word these people do not apparently understand.
