When I was starting in business, my father told me that when one is in business, one's good name is much more important to one than almost anything else. He mentioned the effect of not paying one's debts. The deal that was made in Brussels during the early hours of this morning seems to suggest that Greece will not pay its debts. Some people are saying we should be treated similarly. The steps taken by the Taoiseach and the Minister yesterday are very important. I support them entirely. We have a good name. We have established a good name. We could say it was not our fault, but that of the banks, that we ran short of money. However, we need to make sure we maintain our good name.
