Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

Bhí seans agam an cheist seo a chur cheana. An bhfoilseoidh an Rialtas clár nua? Is léir nach gcuirfear i bhfeidhm an chlár a tharraingíodh suas i 2007. Cad a bheidh in áit an chlár sin? An gcuirfidh an Rialtas clár leasuithe os comhair an Oireachtais?

The programme for Government includes commitments that are cost neutral. Can the Taoiseach advise the House which of these will proceed? At least let us examine the programme for Government to determine what exactly is being done to deliver on the commitments entered into between the parties comprising this new coalition. Does he not accept that a revised programme for Government is essential? He is coming forward with an additional budget for this year. In the same vein, a programme for Government drafted in the context of the 2007 general election clearly has not got the potential for delivery. It is a requirement that the programme be redrafted and brought before the Houses of the Oireachtas for debate. Will he fulfil that requirement?
