Report of Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Motion
Dail Éireann — 2023-11-23
============================================================

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill (FG), Dún Laoghaire

Excuse me; I am speaking. Sinn Féin would, in fact, interfere in the decision-making of corporates, as evidenced by its legislation on insurance. Sinn Féin would also maintain a stake in the banks on the off chance that share prices would rise. Of course, it is easy to come into the Chamber and say this and that happened. Share prices are volatile, however. Had the Government take a different decision and share prices had gone down, Sinn Féin would have said the Minister should have taken the opportunity in 2018 to sell off some of those shares. I appreciate that it is so easy to sit there-----
