Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Many of the developments, such as the Gort-Tuam project and the Rosslare bypass, are under way. These are major developments. The point the Deputy makes about the extent of fiscal space and the capacity to spend money is an issue we are considering and will continue to consider. The question about AIB is a decision we have already made as a Government and we will follow through on it. The question of flexibility is a matter the Minister, Deputy Noonan, is dealing with all of the time.
