Finance Bill 2003 [ Certified Money Bill ] : Second Stage.
There have been no indications so far this year that the public finances will not stay on track and I am hopeful that they will. We will know more after the publication of the figures for the first quarter. The real issue in relation to financial management is the generation of maximum revenue and economic growth. The Government has been more successful in the past five years, in terms of generating increased revenue, than any other Government in the history of the State.
