Kenny refuses to reveal nature of 'sensitive' talks on promissory notes

Taoiseach Enda Kenny has refused to reveal details of ongoing talks about Ireland’s banking debts because he said they are "too sensitive".

The Taoiseach would not confirm whether current discussions with European and IMF debt masters were about seeking a cut in the taxpayer-saddled Anglo Irish Bank debts or a request for more time to spread out the repayments.
