Proceeding contribution from Mark Durkan (Social Democratic & Labour Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 March 2007. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget resolutions.
AMENDMENT OF THE LAW
The right hon. Gentleman should realise that what the social partnership framework agreements did was to set discipline in terms of tax rates, they agreed the tax framework, and they also provided for wage restraint, so Government were able to negotiate that with business, trade unions and other social interests on a multi-annual basis. That provided the environment that has attracted businesses into Ireland.
