SINN Fein's proposal to raid Ireland's pension reserve fund of €7 billion to pay inflated police salaries smacks of financial fecklessness.
Reducing overall public sector salary costs at source is far more efficient and prudent.
Suspension of pension contributions by the Irish State for younger public sector employees could create a 'holiday window' and reduce overall borrowing requirements.
Sinn Fein's proposal to reduce professional fees by 25% is welcomed but could be greater.
Reducing the cost of public administration coupled to increased taxation might accelerate the Sovereign debt repayment schedule.
