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

I categorically reject the absolutely unfounded allegations made by Deputy Burton. Because she agrees with the decision I made, she can do nothing beyond making unfounded and inaccurate allegations regarding my conduct and that of my Department. The decision on this matter was treated with the utmost sensitivity by my officials and me. During the time period to which the Deputy refers, many other assertions were made regarding what would happen on budget day, the majority of which proved unfounded.
