Jack Wall
Question:106 Mr. Wall asked the Minister for Finance if his attention has been drawn to the rise in basic food products due to the rise in inflation and the introduction of the statutory minimum wage; if his attention has further been drawn to the fact that senior citizens and families on social welfare payments are finding it very difficult to cater with such rises; the plans, if any, he has to deal with the matter; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
