Sean Barrett (Independent)

As a result of the Minister's work and endeavours, we now have a very well capitalised banking system that may indeed become a model for other countries. I say this having met some members of the Troika in Kenmare at the weekend and others in Trinity College on Monday. What we have done may well be a model for others and credit is due to all concerned on that. I thank the Minister and wish him well with this and with his other endeavours to set the country back on the right financial road.
