Budget Statement 2008: Statements (Resumed).
7:00 pm
Pearse Doherty (Sinn Fein)
I will do it in one sentence. The increase that has been given to three Ministers is equal to the same increase we gave to 120 pensioners. That demonstrates where the Government's commitment is in this budget. It was not for the most vulnerable or the weakest in society. We could have done much more and it is a missed opportunity.
