Comment on this
The Leader has stated the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Paschal Donohoe, will be in the House at 6 p.m. to make a statement on the cuts to the Irish airlines superannuation scheme and take questions in that regard. I am very grateful to the Leader and will try to remember to mention other items tomorrow. I was more concerned about 15,000 workers having their pensions cut than about the Tánaiste being detained in her car for two hours.
