Committee on Budgetary Oversight: Framework for Parliamentary Engagement Throughout the Budgetary Cycle: Discussion (9 Feb 2021)

Pearse Doherty: My question is for the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy McGrath. On 8 October, only five days before the budget, I said: It appears from what the Minister is saying that he is still going to pull the bunny out of the hat next Tuesday, despite everything he said for the past ten years.
