Tommy Broughan (Dublin North East, Labour)

I want to ask the Minister again about people abroad running out of money. Will he and the Minister for Finance, Deputy Brian Lenihan, speak to the banks other than Ulster Bank to enable people to have enough credit?

I commend Bus Éireann for laying on extra coaches to London and other parts of the UK. Is this something the Minister can encourage? Will he liaise with Irish Ferries, Stena Line and the other operators to ensure we have a fallback position on the maritime and road fronts?
