The Economy: Statements
12:00 pm
Fidelma Healy Eames (Fine Gael)
I welcome the Minister of State. I have a number of questions I wish to ask him.
We are bailing out the banks to the tune of €54 billion to restore confidence in the banking sector. This no doubt will be good for the banks - I acknowledge we need a functioning banking system, but there is no guarantee it will be good for the economy or jobs.
