RTE Investigates viewers were all saying the same things after the programme unearthed the serious levels of corruption within Irish County Councils.
The programme explained how local authorities spend over €5 billion a year and have a huge range of responsibilities, but they are subject to very little external oversight.
Dr Fiona Donson, School of Law, UCC, said: "The amount of power that local authorities have, things like planning, things like, you know, housing lists. Those decisions are incredibly significant in terms of day-to-day life, and they need to be made, those decisions need to be made lawfully, and appropriately and transparently."
