I wish to concur with the excellent statement by the acting leader of the Opposition, Senator White. She spoke from knowledge, conviction and experience. I wish the Government would listen to her contribution today. It comes from a very good knowledge of industrial development in this country, in which she has led, while her husband, Padraic, led the IDA during a difficult period. The majority of the announcements made by the Minister, Deputy Richard Bruton, and the IDA were negotiated by Fianna Fáil. That is a fact.
