Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

We welcome the constructive discussions we have had and acknowledge the assistance provided by departmental officials. As our proposals were independently reviewed and costed, we have not had to revise their costings.  However, we must put on the record our concern that important fiscal information was not reflected in data published by the outgoing Government before the election.
