EU-IMF Programme of Financial Support: Motion
2:00 pm
Brian Lenihan Jnr (Dublin West, Fianna Fail)
Any putative Government opposing the joint programme has a duty to set out for the electorate its alternative source of funding for this country over the next few years. I have referred to various assertions about European contacts that the principal Opposition party has made in the course of this debate. I was about to make the point that the most influential and important contact of the Fine Gael Party is the German Christian Democratic Union and Chancellor Merkel, whose intervention played a large part in the escalation of our bond prices this autumn. I urge Fine Gael to use its influence in that regard.
