Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

These negotiations are being conducted by the troika. I do not know whether all of the Commissioners know all of the details of the discussions taking place.

Deputy Ross referred to Latin, Greek and Spanish. He should always remember the old Gaelic tongue was one of the prime languages of Europe in ancient times. It has an old saying which is important for everyone to remember when negotiations are under way: Is binn béal ina thost.
