Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Deputy Mick Barry began by asking his question in respect of the Cabinet committee on the economy, trade and jobs and then proceeded to give an almost ten-minute speech on industrial relations and so on. These are matters that are of great importance and I pay tribute to those in the trade union movement who have shown great steadiness, coherence and understanding of the difficulties we have had in this country economically for a number of years.
