Backbench alliance says public needs to see gov't doing its bit to save costs
A political alliance of backbench MHKs says there will need to be public sector job cuts to address what it's described as a 'financial gap'.
The group, consisting of Claire Christian, Julie Edge and Chris Thomas, is calling for more transparency over government's spending.
Last week, it was revealed the number of full-time positions within the public service had increased by more than 250 in less than a year.
Mr Thomas says ultimately that figure needs to be reduced:
Earnings failed to keep pace with inflation from 2024 to 2025 says survey
Plans for Subway to open in south
Cafe sold to new owners
World Cup boosted business, tackled loneliness
