The Green Party has accused the Government of wasting huge sums of taxpayers' money and failing to properly manage the State's affairs.

The party's finance spokesperson, Dan Boyle, said the current Fianna Fáil/PD coalition has squandered a full year's expenditure through mismanagement since it came into power.

Deputy Boyle also strongly rejected criticism of Green economic policies. He said that initiatives such as a carbon tax and refundable childcare tax credits could save the country millions of euro.
