Timing of Defence Forces special claim

Summary

Connaughton asks the Government to pay the full special claim on 1 July rather than 40%; Noonan says he has already answered and that it is unrelated to the question.

Paul Connaughton Mr. Connaughton Fine Gael

Would the Minister or the Government consider paying the entire special claim to the members of the Defence Forces on 1 July and not the 40 per cent which amounts to £6.2 million? It is only fair and reasonable that the Government should pay it now and defuse the whole situation.

(Limerick West): I have previously answered that question adequately and it does not refer to this question.
