Paschal Mooney (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

Will the Minister of State not concede in general terms that Governments should be held accountable for their decisions and actions? That is all these amendments are seeking to do. We are asking the Government to account to the Houses of the Oireachtas, within four months of the passing of this Bill, for the adverse or positive impact on the general population of certain policy and monetary decisions that it made. I refer specifically to the impact on the particular categories of the population that have been affected by these cuts.
