Former senior Government adviser and public affairs consultant Gerard Howlin weighs in on public sector pay and reform in today's Irish Times. Howlin argues that it should mostly be about reform and writes that "Money, no matter how many billions are involved, is the least important part of what is really at stake in the pay talks," and cuts to his main bugbear, remote working, in a mostly evidence-free rant to argue that "scaling back remote working should be on the agenda as payback for public sector pay rises."
