Deputy Enda Kenny: We cannot have a sound economy without small businesses. Three years ago, 800,000 people worked in the small business sector, in tourism, services and manufac- turing. That number has declined to 700,000 and on current projections is likely to further decrease to 600,000 next year. The banking strategy set out by the Government has failed in so far as small businesses are concerned. The Taoiseach said that we will write whatever cheques are necessary. Those cheques have thus far amounted to €74 billion in taxpayers’ money. When the guarantee scheme was introduced, the Minister for Finance stated that the Government is deeply embed- ded in the banking sector and, as such, would bring leverage to it.
