Seanad debates
Tuesday, 18 February 2003
Order of Business.
Senator O'Toole requested a debate on the new programme, Sustaining Progress. We have been asked to delay debating it in anticipation that there may be further agreement. The Senator also asked if it would be possible to provide tax relief for those who hold savings accounts with a view to purchasing a house. The Senator went on to say that, although many politicians participated in last Saturday's march against war in Iraq and are listening to the voice of the people, Governments are not. However, the Government is listening. This morning the Taoiseach said he was pleased with the size and extent of the march. The Senator also requested a debate on prices and competition which I have been seeking with the appropriate Minister.
