- Freedom of Information (16 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: This question is not directly related to the Taoiseach's Department but concerns freedom of information requests. I note the Chairman of the Committee of Public Accounts, Deputy Bernard Allen, made the point recently that the HSE, in transmitting information to the committee, would have legal problems. Giving the same information under freedom of information rules to an individual citizen...
- Order of Business. (16 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: Yesterday the long awaited Saville report was published. Those of us who can recall the events of 38 years ago will remember the darkness, pain, anger and sense of conflict and personal loss to those involved. The subsequent Widgery report is now discredited. The publication yesterday of the Saville report brings conclusion to one of the darkest and saddest sagas in Irish life during the...
- Order of Business. (16 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: I thank the Taoiseach.
- Order of Business. (16 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: I agree with those comments. Dermot Earley was born in Castlebar. My brother marked him at mid-field when Roscommon played Mayo in the 1979 Connacht final. Dermot Earley was one of the most iconic Chiefs of Staff since General Michael Collins, and gave outstanding service to his country. I wish him and his wife, Mary, every success and I hope he is able to deal with his illness. He was...

- Church-State Dialogue (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: Question 3: To ask the Taoiseach Taoiseach if he will report on progress in respect of the structured dialogue with the churches and faith communities; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25054/10]
- Church-State Dialogue (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: I wish to ask the Taoiseach three questions, two on this matter and one on another. First, the independent panel that reported last November assessed the statements of the religious congregations. I understand that the final cost of the responses was approximately â¬1.36 billion, of which 50% was to be provided by the religious congregations. They made an offer of â¬348.51 million,...
- Church-State Dialogue (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: I believe in the process of the structured dialogue that has been running for a number of years. Is there a timetable for meetings? Do these conversations take place once or twice a year or is the programme devised by the Government? Is a specific agenda or theme followed or do conversations arise from the circumstances that are topical in the news? I took the opportunity to meet the...
- Leaders' Questions. (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: I was not the only person absolutely appalled by the revelation at the Oireachtas committee last week by Mr. Aynsley, the chief executive of Anglo Irish Bank, to the effect that the â¬22 billion put into that bank by the taxpayer will never be seen again and will end up in a black hole. Given that the Taoiseach gave a personal promise to the House on 1 October 2008 that the Irish taxpayer...
- Leaders' Questions. (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: That is not the question I asked. I asked whether the Taoiseach accepts that the majority of the â¬22 billion to be put into Anglo Irish Bank will, in the words of Mr. Aynsley, never be seen again. The Taoiseach said that Mr. Aynsley told us what the situation is and went on to say that in the event of an immediate liquidation, this would cost â¬142 billion. Nobody is talking about an...
- Leaders' Questions. (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: ----- and which Mr. Aynsley, the chief executive states "will never be seen again". The alternative is for the Government to change its policy by making some of those lenders and investors share the pain equally. It then would be able to hold onto some of the aforementioned 40,000 jobs that could be created. In addition, it could bring about a situation in which income could be generated...
- Leaders' Questions. (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: Moreover, the reduction proposed by the Government of â¬11 billion over the next three years will cost 40,000 jobs. I again ask the Taoiseach whether he accepts the Aynsley assertion that this is dead money in a dead bank in a black hole? Consequently, is he prepared to change tack and change policy and make those lenders and investors share some of the pain in respect of Anglo Irish Bank?
- Leaders' Questions. (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: No, the Taoiseach stated that our policy was to liquidate Anglo Irish Bank immediately. That is not true.

- Leaders' Questions. (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: There is â¬3 trillion available.
- Leaders' Questions. (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: The Taoiseach should answer the question. The money will never be seen again.
- Leaders' Questions. (22 Jun 2010)
Enda Kenny: The Taoiseach should check his own outfit. If he wants any advice, he should give me a shout.
