lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, Ireland has been rocked by another financial scandal that the European Parliament should be made aware of. Our Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, was missing in action, while one man, media mogul Denis O’Brien, tried to censor coverage of the scandal. He sought to prevent disclosure of a deal between himself and the state-owned IBRC through which he acquired a company at a discount of EUR 190 million at the taxpayers’ expense. While Denis O’Brien was slapping gagging orders on our national broadcaster and threatening to sue parliamentarians for using Dáil privilege, Enda Kenny was nowhere to be found. This is the same Enda Kenny who in Paris was quick to defend freedom of the press. At the same time, the Finance Minister, Michael Noonan, was absolving the government of any involvement in the whole saga. This is the same Michael Noonan who ruled out support for any debt deal for Greece, but who declared debt write-downs to be normal when it comes to selling assets to powerful friends. So, once again, we have the Irish taxpayers picking up the tab for corporate greed."@en1
