Ms Josephine Feehily:

I would never use those phrases or sentiments with regard to the Government of the day and it would be completely outside my role. I asked colleagues how we got into this space when I thought we were offering seven different ways to pay. It is a question I asked myself for the past couple of days, as we thought we were providing many options but they seemed to get us into bother. The sentiment that came into my mind was more practical and I offer no further comment on the Deputy's remarks.
