Seanad debates

Wednesday, 19 November 2003

I had intended dealing with individual items but as the Chair will not give me any injury time for the heckling that has taken place I will not. There is an onus on any good Minister to review areas of expenditure on particular items. Undoubtedly, there will be some tweaking of these and further targeting to ensure that those most in need benefit. This Administration has been tremendously successful in doing that. When I see the Opposition quoting The Irish Times as a paragon of either republican or socialist thinking, I must smile as it means that the argument is already well won.
