Social Welfare and Pensions Bill 2012: Committee Stage (Resumed)
5:00 pm
David Cullinane (Sinn Fein)
It is typical of the Minister to be flippant about jobs and the need for this country to get people back to work. The Minister knows exactly what we are talking about, which is a green fund in the sense of a fund for Ireland to get people back to work, one which will enable us do much of what was in the Labour Party's pre-election manifesto, including the retrofit programme. The Labour Party also referred at that time to the establishment of a strategic investment bank. What has it done in that regard? Will such a bank be established?
