David Cullinane (Sinn Fein)

I welcome the Minister for Justice and Equality, Deputy Shatter, to the House. I must purchase one of those mobile telephones he has because he spends all the time on it. It must have all the answers he needs. Will he tell us which model it is?

I welcome the introduction of the Criminal Justice Bill 2011. As Senator Bacik stated, there is cross-party support to deal with white-collar crime. Earlier on the Order of Business, I made the point that the Labour Party had a different position on the bank bailout before the general election to the one it has now it is in government. Senator Bacik just complained about being lectured to by Sinn Féin. The same was said by the former Taoiseach, Mr. Brian Cowen, and the late Mr. Brian Lenihan about the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Deputy Gilmore, when he accused the then Taoiseach of economic treason for putting taxpayers' money into the banks. This is still happening under the new Government.
