Enda Kenny and Joan Burton are due to appear before the Banking Inquiry today.

The Taoiseach and Tánaiste will give evidence on the policies they put forward while their parties were in opposition.

Three senior figures within Fianna Fail have been and gone at the inquiry without any major 'gotcha' moment.

But Bertie Ahern, Brian Cowen and Charlie McCreevy all pointed the finger at the main opposition parties of the day, saying they were also demanding lower taxes and higher spending.

Today those opposition parties, who are now in Government, will be given a chance to answer for themselves.

Enda Kenny and the jobs minister Richard Bruton - who used to be Fine Gael's finance spokesman - will attend the inquiry this morning.

At lunchtime Labour's former leader Pat Rabbitte, and *his* former finance spokesperson Joan Burton, will explain their position.

If the inquiry was designed to remind voters about Fianna Fáil's mistakes in the last government, today might indicate whether the plan has backfired.
