It is very clear that the Government is not even prepared to give the appropriate time for the discussion of this important sale. Equally, it wants to hide the answers to questions relevant to children. Is that not an appalling vista from a Government that promised transparency and openness and all we get today is a cloak being pulled over the children of this State while all the time it wants to rush through the sale of Aer Lingus to put itself in funds to fight the next election?

It wants to dish out goodies to try to win votes from what it believes to be an unsuspecting general public.
