Michael Noonan (Limerick City, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I have not seen "Anglo The Musical" but I always think that satire, unless handled lightly, is just above pie throwing as theatrical entertainment. I do not think the Deputy should bring it forward as his principal witness in requesting the Government to default. On the other hand, I have made my position clear about the imminence, in March, of a repayment. I did not pay it last year and I have signalled to the Europeans and nationally that I am not disposed to pay it this year. I would like an agreement with the European authorities which allows for a different way of dealing with the promissory note as we go forward.
