Olwyn Enright (Laois-Offaly, Fine Gael)

The most we got was the Green Paper on Pensions. The Government is proposing to make significant changes tonight. I take the Taoiseach's point that there is a need for urgency because some companies are in difficulty at the moment. However, I remind him that the need for urgency did not develop over the last 48 hours. We need more time if we are to have a proper opportunity to discuss this issue.
