Statutory Home Care: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2024-06-27
============================================================

Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North

I hate to introduce rancour into any debate, particularly this one, but, as regards reference to the reserves that everybody has their eye on at present, let me remind the House that we had reserves in the recent past. They lasted two days when the run came on the banks. That is how much we can rely on reserves. They are there for a purpose and have to be kept for - if we intend to go on-----
