Sale of State Assets: Statements (8 Mar 2012)

Anthony Lawlor: No, we would not because we would have realised that part of the sale of Eircom would have generated the income we needed and we would have held on to the crucial part, the strategic part.

We...

Banking Sector Regulation: Motion (13 Mar 2012)

Anthony Lawlor: I welcome the Private Members' motion tabled by Deputy Michael McGrath, which gives us an opportunity fully and frankly to debate mortgages and small businesses.
