Brian Cowen (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

First, I refer to the question of producing a document. The document was prepared by the people in the industries who are charged with their promotion long before it was decided when the Dáil would return. It was approved and launched by the Government, as it is quite right and proper that people should know about it. They were not going to hear about this sort of opportunity from the Opposition. Second, on the question of a strategic bank, the Deputy has not told me how he proposes to collateralise the €20 billion. From where will he get the €20 billion?
