About this episode
The Government has a recurring problem with budgetary overruns. Last year, overspending amounted to €4.1 billion. Already this year Education needs an extra 646m, while the HSE is 250m over for the first three months of the year. Public Expenditure and Reform Minister Jack Chambers joined Paul now in studio to discuss the way forward.
