Greens feel heat to get concessions from FF

THE Green Party is coming under increased pressure to secure a wide range of concessions from Fianna Fáil as negotiations on the revised Programme for Government (PfG) enter the final two days.

Opposition parties and special interest groups ratcheted up the pressure on the Greens yesterday on everything from NAMA to climate change.

However, the leadership has been boosted by the indication from the Greens Against NAMA (GAN) splinter group they will not explicitly target the Programme for Government at a vote on Saturday.
