John Curran (Dublin Mid West, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I thank Mr. O'Connor for his opening statement. I will take questions from a number of Deputies grouped together, following which I will call on Mr. O'Connor, Mr. Warren or Ms Jordan to respond. I remind colleagues that at the outset we agreed to keep the questions direct because of the time element and the fact that we are doing a double session this morning. I invite Deputy Bernard Durkan to commence.
