Tony Killeen (Clare, Fianna Fail)

Those who tabled the amendments made a particular case, which is contradictory. However, following the contributions of other Members, it is clear a concern is shared by all Members about the impact of predatory pricing, particularly where a firm might be in a dominant position. The political point was made about who is protecting big business and who is the saviour of small business and so on. Approximately, 2,500 small businesses have gone to the wall over the past few years under the current regime, which some of the people who claim to protect small business also claim ought to be preserved. I have a difficulty with that logic.
