Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

With respect, I find the response of the Taoiseach incredible. His efforts to paint my pointing to the factual situation, that the European Commission approved the Polish Government's €54.5 million grant aid to Dell to relocate 1,900 jobs from this jurisdiction to another within the European Union, as being grossly unfair are amazing. That is as close to balderdash as I have ever heard from the Taoiseach. It is incredible that the European Union has given approval to state enterprises regarding their promotion of investment in Poland to secure jobs there. It is fine that they were here for so many years but we do not have to cravenly thank them so much for having been here-----
