I generally agree with what has been said. It is good that Senator O'Donovan notes that there was a kind of consensus between the banks and Fianna Fáil when it was in government. However, that is just being followed through with this Government. There is a very cosy relationship with the banks which are being given preferential treatment. It is a disgrace that the Government has not stood up to the banks after we pumped so much money into them and the Bill must be opposed.
I agree with everything Senator Hayden has said, but if she votes for the Bill she is making herself out to be a complete hypocrite because she is not standing on her principles.
