Order of Business (15 Dec 2010)

Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: The time being provided to address this proposition is wholly inadequate. This is an issue of such enormity that I cannot for the life of me understand why such little time is being provided. After one takes into account the contributions by the main spokespersons, the reply by the Minister for Finance, the fact there are three empty seats in the House and the Ceann Comhairle who does not...

Order of Business (15 Dec 2010)

Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: The Sinn Féin Deputies oppose proposal No. 4 on the so-called Credit Institutions (Stabilisation) Bill 2010. We do so because it underpins the Government's failed banking strategy and because, despite what the Taoiseach claimed in his responses earlier to Deputies Burton and Gilmore, there is not adequate time to address the reasons this Bill should not be supported. This Bill is being...

Leaders' Questions. (15 Dec 2010)

Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: This is an outrageous situation. Over the term of the loan, and if it is drawn down in full, a further burden of €5 billion will be placed on the Irish people. This money will go directly back to the EU member states, principally Germany and France. We are told this additional 3% has the approval of the eurozone Finance Ministers.

Leaders' Questions. (15 Dec 2010)

Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: It is suggested that the average interest rate applying will be something of the order of 5.8%. Make no mistake, however, there are clear indications that the estimated real interest rate will be closer to 7% across the board. The Government has already admitted this in a number of statements it issued.

Leaders' Questions. (15 Dec 2010)

Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: What is the real rate that will apply? Will the Taoiseach reveal to the Irish people the full facts and the real truth regarding this very sullied deal the Government is proposing to impose following today's forced vote in the Chamber? If the Taoiseach has confidence in the deal to which I refer, he should ensure there is a free vote on it for all Members.

Leaders' Questions. (15 Dec 2010)

Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: From what the Taoiseach said, there is no sense of the so-called spirit of solidarity cited in Article 122 of the Lisbon treaty.
