Joan Collins (Dublin South Central, People Before Profit Alliance)

Is the Minister saying she is carrying on the cuts Fianna Fáil introduced, because she has laid out the process since 2009? Is extending the age for the State pension reflective of quotes from people like Colm McCarthy of an bord snip nua who, in the Irish Examiner in July 2009, stated that people used to snuff it at 70 but they have now decided to snuff it at 80, 85 or 90 and that something has to give? Is this what the Minister is giving?
