Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

The Taoiseach might want to come in here like an intellectual Norman Schwarzkopf and beat the living daylights out of us all. I am asking a simple question. Does the Taoiseach accept that the Director of Public Prosecutions, a respected officer of the State, Mr. Hamilton, speaking on national radio stated he will not be able to do his job effectively if the Government implements a 3% payroll cut? He did not make this up. Does the Taoiseach accept his word that he has difficulties with what the Taoiseach proposes? What is the date of the report which the Taoiseach has in front of him which states something different from what is reported?
