Houses of the Oireachtas Commission Bill 2002: Second Stage.

 

This should not be compared with the Final Report of the Joint Committees of both Houses, who looked at this last year and the year before. It is a completely different thing. It does not do the business. Effectively, the reduction in the costings from, I am not sure of the figures, €350 million to €290 million, means we are going to pay the price. The whole world knows that if there is any figure that has to be right when setting up a new enterprise it is the first figure. After that it is a percentage increase on a year by year basis, which means we will not be able to do what we set out to do.
