I recall a number of months ago in national economic dialogue at meetings with civil society groups, and I will paraphrase here but I think it is accurate, the Taoiseach actually contradicted the Minister, Deputy Donohoe and the Minister, Deputy McGrath, when he said we can do tax cuts, we can increase capital expenditure, we can increase current expenditure all at the same time, provided that the economy continues to grow. I disagree with him and I assume IFAC would too. Would it?
