Parlon criticises decentralisation budget
08/10/2005 - 16:08:22The Government's decentralisation plans are being criticised again, this time by one of its own, Junior Finance Minister Tom Parlon.
Minister Parlon said that Charlie McCreevy's original budget proposals were "overly ambitious".
Under the plan, thousands of civil servants should have been relocated to more than 50 locations around the country within three years.
However, Mr Parlon did say that decentralisation offers the biggest ever opportunity for civil servants to work anywhere and in what department they want.
