Yesterday I listened with interest to Senators express their views. There was a certain concern about the negativity from various quarters, in particular the media. I refer to the view expressed on the national airwaves. I cannot understand why RTE always feels it must have balance.
We should remain positive given the very difficult and challenging times ahead. Senator Harris said this is not necessarily a party political issue and that it warrants unity of purpose, which I wholeheartedly support. We must not underestimate, challenge or overstate our difficulties. What we must do together is address these issues. We must remain positive in respect of the challenges we face.
I would also like to compliment our national broadcaster-----
