Frances Fitzgerald (Fine Gael)

I take the business of the Seanad, namely, our discussions, debates and the work we do, very seriously. I am outraged at the idea that this House did not meet yesterday to facilitate a game of golf. That is simply not acceptable. The public is so disillusioned that we had pensioners throwing eggs at the AIB board at its EGM in Dublin today. People are unemployed. It is simply not acceptable that there is a story out there that this House did not meet yesterday to facilitate a game of golf.
