Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire agus gabhaim buíochas leis as an gcur i láthair a thug sé dúinn.
I wish to deal with the Common Position on flexibility of the Stability and Growth Pact, which ECOFIN is to be briefed on. Obviously the Government was one of the architects of the Stability and Growth Pact. What is wrong with the rules now and what needs to be made more flexible?
