Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

In respect of 436,000 people on the live register, what is the Government's intention in terms of providing a stimulus to create jobs and give some confidence to people all over this island who are in absolute despair at what the Government is mumbling and talking about for the past 18 months? The Government's record of an increase in unemployment from 202,000 in May 2008 to 436,000 now speaks for itself. It is a disaster.
