148 Irish TD/Senator key fobs lost/broken in 4 years, potentially raising misuse concerns.
In the past four years, 148 key fobs used by Irish TDs and Senators to claim travel and accommodation expenses were reported lost or broken. Politicians must clock in for 120 days annually to receive allowances, ranging from €9,000 to €34,000 for TDs and €5,250 to €29,565 for Senators. Despite installing CCTV in Leinster House, no additional checks on fob usage have been implemented, raising concerns about potential misuse.
