This statement gives the expenses and they are very reasonable.
Is there a check on them?
As is the case in all organisations——
Why does the Deputy not ask Deputy Costello?
The Minister for Social Welfare seems to think that this Party cannot speak their mind. Unlike the Fianna Fáil Party we in this Party can speak our minds.
Especially when they are heaping contumely on defenceless people.
As is the case in respect of all moneys paid out, these moneys are subject to the most careful scrutiny and examination.
I am very pleased to hear it.
