Richard Boyd Barrett (Dún Laoghaire, People Before Profit Alliance)

As we break for the summer, I am sure the Taoiseach is aware that for the 450,000 people or so who have no jobs, this will be a difficult summer. In terms of forthcoming legislation dealing with matters such as the strategic investment bank and the McCarthy report on State assets and, more generally, job creation, will the Taoiseach indicate that as soon as we return in the autumn there will be a major debate on job creation to bring forward positive proposals to get people back to work?
