That is the difference between Fine Gael and Sinn Féin in this debate. As a Government party and one that aspires to be a responsible party of Government, we have to stand over the commitments we make. We cannot simply come here with a shopping list and say "you should do X, Y and Z" without any attempt to explain how we are actually going to pay for it or justify how it could be delivered. When criticism was made of other speakers, they were shouted down. Senator Gavan has intervened possibly in every speech since that happened.
