Budget Day will still be December 7, says Cowen

BRIAN COWEN has told the Dáil that the Budget will still be announced on December 7, in line with the government’s earlier indications. The declaration came after Green Party senator Dan Boyle, taking the Order of Business in the Seanad this afternoon, had indicated that the date had not yet been fixed and may have been subject to change.
