A BOMB squad detonated a large Second World War aerial bomb that was uncovered in the garden of a house in Salzburg. The 550lb device set off a huge boom that could be heard across the city when it was exploded.

Experts were examining the house to determine if the force of the blast caused any damage, officials said.

No, I think their independence means we get a better job
Yes, they are unaccountable and expensive
Only if their work is duplicated or plainly redundant
