Leaders' Questions today saw Eamon Gilmore tell the Taoiseach that opposition parties are prepared to engage in the Budget debate but in order to do that in a meaningful way the Government must come forward with the information that is available to them.

Eamon told the House: "We have to have available to us the information Taoiseach that you have available to you, we need the information that is coming up to the minister for finance from the different departments. We need to know what that information is, we can't fly blind here. This is either a genuine exercise or a smoke screen."
