201. To ask the Minister for Finance if he has considered in detail the pre-budget submission of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [40665/13]

My Department has so far received in excess of 450 Pre-Budget Submissions from a wide range of groups and individuals. These are being considered by the relevant officials in the context of Budget and Finance Bill preparation. I can confirm that a submission from the Irish Congress of Trade Unions has been received. I would also advise the Deputy that I recently met with Congress in the context of Budget preparation. However he will be aware also that it is not the practice of the Minister for Finance to discuss the details of measures which may be under consideration as part of the Budget and Finance Bill.
