Well, listen, like I said, the facts and figures reported last year by the INDO certainly would seem to back up the expansion in middle management, Brenda, and we appreciate you getting in touch.

Having listened to Anne O'Connor, the boss of the HSE, on the news at one a little bit earlier today, 0818715815.

If you want to get in touch about this, you can send us an email as well, live line at rte.ie.

Back in a moment.

51551 as well, the number for your texts.

And Brian O'Shea is on the line.

Brian, what happened in your local playground?

Yeah, so we got on to Aramark as well and they say they confirmed this happened and they said all the traps have been removed today.

So as you say, they're gone as we speak, but no explanation to us either as to why they were scattered around the playground.

I mean, maybe to defend them, maybe there was a problem with rodents in the playground that they had to deal with?

Yeah, I've actually seen them as well elsewhere because you can buy them in lots of places.

And I guess the idea is not that you disguise them in a playground so kids will pick them up.

It might be if you've got an issue at home in your own house that you could kind of stick them in a flower bed or somewhere near the front door or back door.

And it's not a big, obvious rat trap.

But, you know, you can be sure you'd be telling your kids if you had them, you're not meant to touch that.

There's rat poison in it.

Or you'd have a sticker on it or you'd have some way of keeping it out of reach of kids or pets as well.

It's the other thing.

I mean, if a cat or a dog or whatever picks that up and ingests it.

Yeah.
