Willie O'Dea (Limerick City, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

We are discussing amendments Nos. 2 and 3 and also some of the subsequent amendments which are very closely related. We seek a report on all expenditure cuts, and I do not mind whether we take 2011, 2008 or another year as a starting point; I just want a review carried out. I think the Minister said in her reply that a social impact assessment report on tax and social welfare changes is being prepared. I take it that this report will cover the areas we are discussing.
