Financial Resolution No. 10: Stamp Duties
10:00 pm
Mary Coughlan (Donegal South West, Fianna Fail)
In comparative terms, my colleagues have seen a huge reduction in their allocation, particularly in terms of their capital spend. They have made sacrifices so that my Department can continue to support enterprise despite the difficulties we currently face. An investment of €500 million represents a considerable commitment to employment creation and sustainability.
The stabilisation of the banking system is vital if we are to return to a situation where credit is available to businesses and enterprises.
