Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

----- but I would like to know what computer system, binary system or abacus is used when the spokesman for the Government says Anglo Irish Bank will return to solvency and will be in a position to lend money. When does the Government envisage this happening?

Regarding the appointment of the deputy chairman of the Labour Court, the Department of Finance stated that this should be subject to open competition. I have no knowledge of the qualifications of the person who has been mentioned but I am sure they are extensive. In the interests of that person, would it not be better that he be allowed to present his credentials at interview so that everyone could understand these appointments are made on merit?
