Order of Business. (6 Jul 2006)

Kathleen Lynch: When the Ceann Comhairle said he was going to give us some advice, I thought he was going to tell us to use sunscreen. That would probably be all we could legitimately call proper advice. I wish to raise the issue of the Disability Act. As a former Minister for Health and Children, the Minister for Finance had an interest in this and was probably the only Minister to do something constructive...

Order of Business. (6 Jul 2006)

Disposal of Shares in Aer Lingus Group plc: Motion. (6 Jul 2006)

Kathleen Lynch: As a member of Fianna Fáil, the Minister knows a lot about discrediting financial institutions. Let us not go there. That is not what I came here to debate.

Disposal of Shares in Aer Lingus Group plc: Motion. (6 Jul 2006)

Kathleen Lynch: If the Minister wants to discuss discrediting people in terms of financial implications we can have that debate another day. To allow Cork Airport, which has the highest charges of any airport in the country, to carry this burden would cripple it. It will not be a level playing pitch, as the Minister promised it would. The Government should live up to its promise, but why should I be...

Disposal of Shares in Aer Lingus Group plc: Motion. (6 Jul 2006)

Kathleen Lynch: This is a company which, if it has to expand, has two ways of doing so. It could borrow or the Government could invest in it. There is nothing stopping the Government investing in it but the only argument that is accepted is that it has to be sold. This is the only time a profitable, well run, slimmed down State sector company has had to be sold, and we all know what will happen. The...
