Bretton Woods Agreements (Amendment) Bill 2011: Second Stage
I missed part of the Minister of State's speech because I was at a meeting of the Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs, so he may have addressed my question in regard to the second issue, the changes in respect of investment instruments. Does the Minister of State propose to see benefit to Ireland in this regard given that we are no longer proclaiming our hubris around the world, beating our breasts and asking everyone to be like us? It is difficult to know into which category we now fit. Does the Minister of State see capacity in regard to the change in investment instruments in terms of having low stable interest rates in respect of our borrowing requirements?
