    Irish Times today

    "In a keynote statement of the Government's economic policy, Mr Ahern said high inflation and slower productivity had created "vulnerabilities" in the Republic's economy and "difficult challenges" for the future.........................
    "Mr Ahern said the Government was particularly committed to "a proper communications infrastructure", warning communications providers that "obstructionist or anti-competitive policies" would not be tolerated in this effort."
