"Madam President, anger, annoyance and frustration summarise the experience of the Irish people with the Troika. The lack of transparency and the imposition of several cuts to vital services affecting the most vulnerable, including the elderly, the sick and the young, have left a long-lasting mark on the fabric of Irish society. There is a deep responsibility at EU level to break the vicious circle between bank and sovereign debt. I am pleased that the draft report specifically refers to the June[nbsp ]2012 commitment by EU leaders as a result of an amendment tabled by me and my Fianna Fáil colleagues. The amendment also calls on EU leaders to substantially alleviate Ireland’s burden of bank debt. The delay in the implementation of this specific commitment by EU leaders is simply unacceptable. It is not sufficient to talk about it and make a commitment; there has to be a follow-through. EU leaders cannot make such important political commitments and then unduly delay implementing them. In conclusion, I hope that the adoption of this report will help the Irish government to put pressure on the Union and on the Commission to expedite a solution to this critically important economic matter."@en1
