Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

There is an easier and better way. Several opinions are open to the Taoiseach to allow him not reduce allowances to carers, the disabled and the blind.

What about the amount carers save for the State because of love of kith and kin? The message sent out to them is that they do not count and neither does their work. It is not good enough to say we gave them more in times of plenty.
