Mary O'Rourke (Fianna Fail)

I agree with Senator McHugh's comments on those people who have blood on their hands. Senator Walsh called for debates on the regulatory authorities and Iraq. Senator Henry said President Bush should be told to bring his troops home. What is happening in Iraq now is worse than what they found when they went in.

Senator Mansergh said the Joint Committee on Finance and the Public Service has invited or ordered AIB to send representatives to appear before it. I hope that happens soon. Senator Feighan repeated the accusation of robbery against the banks in respect of what they have perpetrated.
