Feargal Quinn (Independent)

I thank Senator Norris for allowing me time. For years during budget debates, I have had the chance to act as a schoolteacher and I usually say I will give marks to the Minister. It has been interesting to recall that over the past ten or 15 years, we have usually held the debate on the evening of the budget. With regard to what Senator Norris said, the Minister for Finance presented the budget very well and with confidence.
