Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I am coming to it. Is the Government prepared to bring before the Joint Committee on Finance and the Public Service or the Dáil the options it considered in respect of the bail out of Anglo Irish Bank? Would it be appropriate that we have a mechanism for independent assessment of the propositions put forward by Government, Fine Gael and Anglo Irish Bank so that Members of this House will have at their disposal truth and fact in regard to the judgments that have been made? In the interests of what has happened and the extent of the liabilities here, it would be an exercise which deserves that kind of scrutiny.
