Fiscal Responsibility Bill 2012: Committee and Remaining Stages
5:55 pm

If I read the sections correctly, which of course may not be the case - I thank the Minister of State for his earlier remarks - "shall" applies if the news is good and "may" applies if the news is bad. Should the Government not be required to announce the bad news to allow us to address the problem? I ask the Minister of State to consider this issue on Report Stage.
