- Central Bank (Variable Rate Mortgages) Bill 2016: Second Stage [Private Members] (17 May 2016)
Michael Noonan: Yes, but I will make a further point before I conclude. This is a minority Government. As everybody knows, the Opposition collectively has more votes than the Government. That creates difficulties for the Government and puts an onus on the Opposition as well. Previously, when the Government was protected by the whipping system, the Opposition could have a go. Now there is a risk involved...
