Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform

Statement of Strategy 2011-2014: Discussion with Department of Finance

2:25 pm

Mr. John A. Moran:

This is clearly subject to Cabinet approval and I do not think I should be second-guessing what the Cabinet will want to say. I think everybody is clear that the Department's view is that we should stay with the targets that were set. Part of the important results Ireland has seen has been based on the determination to stay with the targets we set and to do whatever is necessary to achieve that.
