Ceist:49 Mr. Cullen asked the Minister for Finance the discussions, if any, he held with other heads of Government within the EC, particularly the British Prime Minister, during the ERM currency crisis as it related to the Irish punt; the efforts, if any, he made to seek assistance from his EC partners for the Irish punt in the final 48 hours before devaluation; whether he was satisfied with their response; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
