Madam, - It is reported that five private secretaries have left Ivor Callely since 2002, while several other staff have also sought transfers.

In contrast, just 10 per cent of civil servants are planning to move their jobs under decentralisation.

Perhaps it is time to put Mr Callely in charge of this programme. - Yours, etc,

Madam, - Should junior minister Ivor Callely be forced to move on, perhaps his next career could be in the recruitment industry? From all appearances, he seems to have been running a successful temp agency for a while now. And, since he offers his staff free cars, I'd like to be the first through his door with a CV! - Yours, etc,

JAMES HYDE, Main Street, Lismore, Co Waterford.
