Dormant Accounts (Amendment) Bill 2004: Second Stage.
6:00 pm
Labhrás Ó Murchú (Fianna Fail)
I am happy that the money has been well spent to date. I would go a step further and say we should not take it for granted that strategy should not be revisited, that we will not look for value for money or that there is no necessity for an ongoing monitoring process.
I do not like to disagree with my colleagues on the other side of the House. However, given the categories and headings, this is not like locating an industry somewhere or providing money for some kind of extravaganza. It is money for ordinary people who are vulnerable and deprived.
