Finance Bill 2003 [ Certified Money Bill ] : Second Stage.

 

Whereas the Government has not fulfilled all its promises, I think it was Senator Norris who said in an earlier debate that he was glad it had not done so. If all the promises made by the Opposition had been fulfilled, we would have been bankrupt by Christmas. Thank God the Opposition did not get into Government, because there was a danger that it might have paid off every Eircom shareholder, and that the taxi drivers might have got some extraordinary compensation for running a closed shop for so long. I am sorry if I have embarrassed the Minister of State.
