Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: I see this problem with the Anglo promissory notes as symptomatic of something even more fundamental. Yesterday, when the EU Commissioner, Olli Rehn, was asked about the promissory notes, he embarked upon a kind of lecture to us and the rest of Europe about our obligations. First of all, the Taoiseach should tell the Commissioner that we are not given to taking lectures from him. He said...

Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: That is because Greece was the first exception to the rule he made yesterday. The Spanish were the second exception to the rule as Spain was given leeway on its budget deficit.

Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: The danger I see is that when we are entering the fiscal treaty, we are entering into a kind of À la carte Europe in which the big countries and the maligners will be allowed to pick and choose where they will breach the treaty and where they can make exceptions while Ireland and Hungary will be at the poor man's table - the table d'hôte. We are going to do what we are told by Olli Rehn....

Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: Is the Commissioner privy to these negotiations? Does he know what is going on or is he just giving a general overall lecture to the Taoiseach and other members of the European Union on our long-term obligations?

Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: The Taoiseach has been very successful in doing that this morning. I congratulate him on practising what he preaches.

Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: No one answers fewer questions in this House than the Taoiseach does. He has succeeded this evening – this afternoon. I meant this morning-----

Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: The Taoiseach is good at giving no answers to any of the questions asked. On the promissory notes, does the Taoiseach stand behind the statements made by two of his Ministers that these promissory are relevant to the referendum? Does he stand by the statement by a Labour Minister that there will be delivery on the promissory notes by 31 March?

Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: It is true. I read into the record of this House what he said to The Wall Street Journal.

Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: I read what the Minister said on that issue into the record of the House. He said there would be delivery by 31 March. Deputies opposite can read the record themselves. If they were not here in the Chamber at the time, that is not my problem.

Leaders' Questions (14 Mar 2012)

Shane Ross: Will the Taoiseach tell us whether the Cabinet is in line about this 31 March deadline? It is important because the nation is watching to see if the Taoiseach delivers before that date on some alleviation of the debt or the promissory notes.
