- EU-IMF Programme for Ireland and National Recovery Plan 2011-14: Statements (Resumed) (1 Dec 2010)
Frank Fahey: I thank the Minister of State, Deputy Killeen, for sharing his time with me. Both main Opposition parties have opposed every measure this Government has taken to tackle the financial crisis. Our efforts have been endorsed by the European Commission, the European Central Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. Neither Fine Gael...

- EU-IMF Programme for Ireland and National Recovery Plan 2011-14: Statements (Resumed) (1 Dec 2010)
Frank Fahey: The Labour Party has suggested that it can take â¬2 billion from the National Pensions Reserve Fund, in the present economic climate, before going to the market to raise another â¬18 billion. It is the most ridiculous idea that has been proposed in this House for a long time. I ask Deputy Rabbitte and his colleagues to spell out where they will borrow the â¬18 billion that is the...

- EU-IMF Programme for Ireland and National Recovery Plan 2011-14: Statements (Resumed) (1 Dec 2010)
Frank Fahey: We have spelt out our plan. We await with interest the Labour Party's plan. The reality is that the middle classes of this country will get a hell of a gonc when they see the way the Labour Party intends to tax them out of existence.
- EU-IMF Programme for Ireland and National Recovery Plan 2011-14: Statements (Resumed) (1 Dec 2010)

- EU-IMF Programme for Ireland and National Recovery Plan 2011-14: Statements (Resumed) (1 Dec 2010)
Frank Fahey: I think it was in the beginning of 2003 that Mr. Dermot Gleeson, who was the Attorney General in the Government led by Mr. John Bruton, became the chairman of AIB. He took over from Mr. Lochlann Quinn, who stepped down around that time. Given that Deputy Rabbitte knows so much now about the mistakes that were made, it is a wonder he did not speak to his former Cabinet colleague about the...

Frank Fahey: Yes. I wish to clarify that between 2003 and 2007, the outstanding credit from the Irish banks was increased from â¬160 billion to â¬380 billion, an increase of â¬220 billion. This was during the time when the former Attorney General, the Cabinet colleague of Deputy Rabbitte, was the chairman of Allied Irish Banks. I ask Deputy Rabbitte to answer my question. How come he did not say,...
- Bretton Woods Agreements (Amendment) Bill 2011: Second Stage (19 Jan 2011)
Frank Fahey: I welcome the introduction of the Bill, which provides an opportunity to clarify some of the issues relating to the interest rates which apply in respect of the money made available to Ireland by the EU and the IMF. While there will be a slight reduction in the interest rates, it is interesting to consider some of the comments that have been made, particularly by Opposition spokespersons,...
