Finance minister Steingrímur J. Sigfússon says that the coalition government is not in danger of breaking down over Magmagate.

“We will solve this problem, as we have done with others, and we are working on that. We will carry on with this.”

Steimgrímur declined to comment at length on the issue after the conclusion of this morning’s meeting, which was attended by the prime minister and the business minister.

“It is not opportune, I think, for us to comment on this to the media in depth further than we have done already, before we have reached land on what we are working with. This was a good meeting, and the group of cabinet ministers and representatives from the political parties are now working on this issue together.”
