Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I will not take any lectures from Sinn Féin on economic competence or economic policy-making. At present, we see the State in a position where it is able to invest back in public services, such as the 975 additional special needs assistants the Minister, Deputy Bruton, will confirm this afternoon, precisely because of a change in our economic circumstances that Sinn Féin said would never happen. Deputy Doherty has no right to lecture. Well, he has the right actually. Of course he has the right.
