Not surprising 4% say that. Stealthy quiet corruption rife in public service Ireland: operated through job fixing, patronage, nepotism,
#procurement
, flawed contracts, planning, light/no regulation, Ministerial interferences with the

.
Corruption is very uncommon in Ireland. Only 4% of Irish people say they know anyone who has taken a bribe - the lowest figure in any country in the EU. 🇮🇪😇

Politicians acquiescing on

June 2016 told it’d be dealt with “expiditously”.
Dec 2016 “no policies in place”
Aug 2018 they’d communicate outcome in weeks.
