The only thing that I cannot understand again and again when this goes through my head, is why on earth would they actually want a backlog? Logically it stops making sense after a while.
I'll ask you a counter question: why would they not want a backlog? A backlog only makes sure that their jobs are secure and it makes the politicians feel that more civil servants are needed to clear the backlogs.
Look, I do not come from an opinion that civil servants are the epitome of employees in the world. Nor that they have a huge, unsettled security of tenure. The backlog, as it is, was not always there. And as a human, I do not believe, that other humans want to deal with growing lists, problems, and loss of quick turnover in cash - as the more applications they delay, the more time it takes for them to claim the €950. Nor did I see a huge influx of civil servants wanting to get on the payroll for INIS. Nor do I personally think that INIS want to do GARDA checks in order to simply burden that system too.
