Richard Mulcahy has taken a moment out from editorialising in the Financial Review to put out a media release asking why the Government’s super-secret functional review (but not so secret it can’t be used to justify anything the Government can’t otherwise explain) cost $350,000.
That seems a lot for the sensible advice “don’t pay for things that achieve nothing”, which I would happily have provided for a mere $100,000.
Now that I think about it, I’ve been providing it for free for the last five years, where’s my bloody money Stanhope?
