Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I hear the very people with difficulties every day and week, as I receive e-mails and letters from them. I hope in some small way that I can act, as the Deputy calls it, as a clearing house for some of them. The Government, across its spectrum, represents an attempt to look after those who are vulnerable, who should have a clearing house to see to it that their old age pensions are not cut, their facilities are not taken away or their income tax is not increased. The clearing house should not be afraid to point to an opportunity to create jobs. Was it not a good development that 26,000 came off the live register in August?
