Darragh O'Brien (Fianna Fail)

I want to be sure my colleagues across the House are aware of this in order that they can get it clear in their heads and can ask the Minister about this. We will not listen every day to statements that the Government's hands are tied in regard to the sale of State assets; they are not. My party is opposed to the sale of strategic State assets such as the ESB, which we discussed yesterday. I will ask the Minister for Finance about this later.
