Poor clue, in my opinion. It's all reversed. The "workplace" turns up elsewhere in the puzzle.

Quite a good one. Two letter abbreviation for Irish and Roman 150 in a word for "disposal of loot", missing first letter; definition "going round"

Thanks ChrisE. That confirms that my answer is correct. I'm not finding this one easy.

Finally finished but I can't parse 16d.
I can see it's an anagram and only one word fits.
Please can someone explain it for me.

Not an anagram, rossim! Think "dynamite" (!)
