Paul Gogarty (Dublin Mid West, Green Party)

Absolutely. That is why, in the short term interests of this country, the economic interests of ordinary people being obtain loans for home improvements, business or in order to have their wages paid, we must get the banking system working again. That is the reason the Green Party is supporting this legislation. If we had our way we would change the whole global system of economics. Unfortunately, we cannot do that; it is beyond even our reach.
