Arthur Morgan (Louth, Sinn Fein)

I had a slip of the tongue in referring to the Exchequer. We all anticipate that there will be a significant number of additional social welfare recipients in the coming 12 months. Why would the Minister not want to have at her disposal the additional funding that would arise from abolishing the PRSI ceiling in order to meet the needs of those who will require assistance? Why has she not pressed the Minister for Finance to take this route?
