Financial Resolutions 2013 - Financial Resolution No. 15: General (Resumed) (6 Dec 2012)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: This budget is cowardly and indefensible. In particular, the cuts in social welfare target the most vulnerable in society. So much for the pre-election promises and programme for Government's commitments. By design, the Government has set out to target children and the parents on whom they depend.
