Asked for an urgent debate on the Central Bank Report on banker’s pay and bonus. Unlike some I’ve no problem with people getting very well paid for making lots of money for shareholders. I’d hoped, however, that the terrible mistakes in this area were learnt from. I’m angered but not surprised to read the central bank report that indicates that this has not happened. I called for an urgent debate on this in the Seanad. This was supported by colleagues from all sides.
After this order in for general election posters, and work on a new leaflet. Then spent time getting ready for a debate on our 4 year plan.
Just spoke. We now have a parliamentary party meeting on the budget.
